It’s Monday & I’m sure the grind isn’t pretty for all you #workaholics... but it’s gotta get done ✅ it’s all part of the process in shaping a successful future for yourself. I’ve been reading “We Are Not the Same” The Melanin Lifestyle by Shaneequewa Samuels & started a 3 day fast (started last night) for an overdue “physiological vacation”. The most days I’ve done was 8 - water only. So as I stare at this water bottle for lunch, Please do share what you’ll be having 😋 Oh & have you ever fasted? #mondaymotivation #mondaygrind #mondayinspiration #bodycleanse #mindcleanse #bodydetox #melanatedfoodies #melanatedbody #melanatedminds #fastingforhealth #intermittentfasting #takecareofyourtemple #bodylove #waterfast #healthygirlhappygirl #brownskingirl #afrobella #type4hair #4chairdaily #miamiblogger #ftlblogger #westpalmbeachblogger #explorepageready (at Aloft Delray Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCBs5GhhkYW/?igshid=fxpz2nct7dtv

Week 12 Blog Post (due 11/11/2020)

1. What do all three articles have in common?

All three articles deal with the issue of profit. In "Virtual Homeplace," we see a struggle between advocating for your community but also taking advantage of them. While reading "Ethnic Online Communities," we see a common theme where advertisement companies take advantage of specific ethnic communities. Gamergate showed a group of people going after small independent companies rather than the huge profitable game companies. Money is a common theme in all three articles, and it intertwines with the issue of racism and sexism. Racism and sexism have proven to be profitable, allowing companies to take advantage of a communities despair. The purpose of advocacy is lost when tainted by advertisements and sells pitches that only benefit white male companies.

2. Can a virtual home place be the start of a movement?

In the article "Virtual Homeplace" by Lee, we see hair blogs become places of healing, comfort, and nurture. Blogs such as "CurlyNikki.com," "Afrobella, all shades are beautiful," and "Blackgirllonghair.com" have provided spaces for black women "to build a community around their body, but more specifically hair." Here the women discuss products, DIY hair remedies, and even some social concerns on how natural hair is portrayed in the media. Many of these blogs call out media such as Stanger on Bravo for shedding a negative light on natural hair and glorifying Eurocentric standards of beauty. This commentary resulted in people boycotting the show and "to teach and discuss the historical wounds of racial oppression." There are many examples of discussions on blogs resulting in social change, but there are limitations. Some of these limitations are blogs only being virtual home places for tech-savvy people and have access to technology. With that being said, I still think virtual home places can be a place to start a movement because it brings people together and starts discussions on important topics that are always covered in academia.

3. How do you know when profit has taken over purpose?

Profit taken over purpose means the website, blog, or advocacy group is valuing profit more than the cause they stand for. As stated by McLaine, "Profit is easier to measure and benefit from, while purpose is more elusive and indirectly rewarding." When many of these EOCs started, their goal was to bring together people of the same ethnicity. The advertisements on these sites have proven that profit has taken over purpose. None of the advertisements featured minority friendly companies, and the advertisements' money wasn't used to advance the community. As a visitor on these sites, it might be hard to differentiate when you are being sold something or the company is concerned with the community's wellbeing. Making sure to pay attention to the advertisements used and how the company uses its power is essential. We should always strive to support one another in the most authentic way possible.

4. How has ignoring issues of race and sexism online affected the growth of online spaces?

In many of the readings we have done throughout the semester, we have seen online spaces ignoring groups of people. Gamergate was started over a woman in gaming, and EOCs were created to fill a void on the internet. Excluding these groups of people limit "the growth of individual users, as well as the technological medium as a whole." These people are usually targeted to profit from them, but they should be more than just money signs. Women and people of color have a lot of knowledge to offer. In gamergate, we see people saying that they want to play games without discussing minorities or women. By doing this, we are limiting our knowledge and accepting privilege. As stated by McLaine, the internet should not be seen as an equalizer. On the contrary, the internet has highlighted all of the work we still have to do to become more inclusive.

Hathaway, J. (2014). What is gamergate and why? An explainer for non-geeks. Gawker.

Lee, L. (2015). Virtual homeplace: (re)constructing the body through social media. 91-111.

McLaine, S. (2003). Ethnic online communities: between profit and purpose. 233-254.
