PART 2 Kony 2012

Was the video successful? What do you think? Joseph Kony is still alive and free in Africa His rebel group is still active and still recruits children as soldiers American citizens and most of the world has not pressured their governments to do anything about Kony

Media Coverage Canadian News Video Kony 2012 Part 2

Is Kony 2012 a version of Activism or Slacktivism? Slacktivism: the concept that social media users are confused into thinking their tweets, likes, or shares can make a difference. Is the Kony 2012 video an example of this?

Criticism Today show Invisible Children respond to criticism  Cnn CEO Video BBC Video

Criticism Not accurate facts Lack of content Gives a bad image of Uganda Western hero activism (White Man Burden)  Rudyard Kipling Western world needs to civilize other cultures Rudyard Kipling What is the next step to catch Kony Too much money goes to foundation (2 out of 3 dollars goes to the foundation Minimal impact of social media Celebrities don’t do anything Video supports military action

Praise Started a conversation Awareness has been raised Educated people about what had happened and is happening Mobilized the world Stopping Joseph Kony is the objective, more pressure can’t hurt

Invisible Children Respond What happened to Kony 2012 Invisible Children CEO speaks

Questions to Consider What depth did the video have? If the video is inaccurate does it matter? Is the video (faults and all) still beneficial for the cause to stop Kony?/ Is it ok to lie or “stretch the truth” for the greater good? Would you donate to Invisible Children to stop Kony or for future causes? After class last week, do you try to find more information out about Joseph Kony? Why?
