Notes: the latest YouthSpeaksOut!, "The Social Dilemma." This month's show is hosted by college freshmen who have watched "The Social Dilemma," a documentary video about the way social media affects users. The hosts talk about their use of various platforms including Facebook, Snapchat, and TikTok, and their response to the topics the video raises, including data accumulation, increasing social polarization, and surveillance capitalism. They also provide an update on how online college classes are working for them. How is social media shaping our youth, politics, and culture? (58:00)
