As digital natives, the Millennial Generation relies heavily on the interconnectivity of the web. According to the Millennial Values Survey, 63% of Millennials use Facebook every day, and while 31% of Millennials say that they do not get their news from television, 81% said that they follow current events and politics online. In this video blog, Millennial Values fellows from the April 2012 Symposium discuss network technology's effect on social activism and civic participation. While they agree that the internet enables a quicker exchange of information, the fellows voice concerns about the internet's ability to create lasting, consequential change.
