Social Connections

For social justice, many voices are needed to be heard. This can be from individuals that have been treated unfairly by law enforcement or even from victims of family members sharing their experiences. In the last couple of years, social connections have been very strong and meaningful to realize some of the issues that are happening on a national stage. Our realization with social connection is important for mental health reasons and utilizing social media to share our message across.

Being able to flush out our frustrations and our emotions are one strong thing for us evoke strong reactions in a heavily emotional topic. Our social connection in a larger community is tied with mental health because a lot of people can vent and pour out their emotions with the thoughts they’re currently thinking about or want to do with their communities. Many people need various spaces to share their stories and for people to listen, respond positively or don’t even need to say anything at all.

Social media is still a strong player when you want to get your voice out in a quick amount of time. Not only this, but your message can be strong and resonate with dozens of people. Social media presence attention can be shared through friends, business networks and even local groups that can be shared through different regions of the country and across the world. For the larger community, the social connection can be anyone in different walks of life and ethnicities.

Connecting with various people are important and should be the main point when you talk about social justice. The start of social connection can be tied with bringing the community together to talk with police and local leaders to change the way things are structured.
