Music Video Reflection

In some ways, it still follows poverty cycle like in personal level poverty, but national level poverty is similar to global level poverty in that it affects more than one group of people it affects everyone. In order to conduct my research, I first had to look back on our class discussions on levels of poverty and the poverty cycle. I had to research what to use as an example, and in my case, it turned out to be Venezuela. I had to research a plausible solution and how to make it work on a national level. The sources that provided me with the majority of my information were Ghana Volunteers’ “Micro Financing” article and Armstrong Economics’ “Hyperinflation-Venezuela” article.

If it was humanitarian/anthropologist, Prince Ea I would watch the whole thing or if they grabbed my attention. If they wouldn’t catch my attention within the first 30 seconds I would not have finished the video. However, if I did come across a video that I truly think is worth me watching then I will most likely tell others about it. I do this on my facebook page, if I see something that makes me happy I will like it and if I think it is important enough I will then share it for all of my friends to see. And hopefully, if they enjoy it, they will share it with their friends. This is the beauty of social media if the people want something to be known it will make its rounds quickly and be known. The most effective way to get a message across is by targeting certain audiences. Hit people right in the feels. Make them feel

    Many activists nowadays use social media to spread their message and get people to join their cause, but will it actually go anywhere? Malcolm Gladwell answers this question in his article “Small Change: Why the Revolution Will Not be Tweeted,” where he discusses the impact of social media on the ability of a revolution to actually make any change in society. Gladwell’s view is that social media, while useful in many ways, will never be able to effectively start and maintain a revolution. He presents a convincing, well written argument that plays on the logic and emotions of the readers, effectively pulling them in and persuading them to agree with his points.

    I viewed Frontline a documentary series, which episode was entitled Poor Kids. The frontline personnel spent time with three children Kailey, Johnny, and Britany along with their families as they all struggle financially. We perceive a glimpse of what it is like to live below the poverty line in America through a child’s eyes. While observing the documentary, I became consciously aware that children who are considered poor or living below the poverty line were more mindful of the responsibilities of life. The children were worrisome of the lack of employment for their parents, bills, and in Britney’s case; how they would accommodate their way of living to support a new addition to the family.
