Beginning


So this blog is a project to express my thought processes as I create my research paper discussing Henry David Thoreau's brilliant essay "Civil Disobedience" and the modern forms of civil disobedience demonstrated through online media.

After discussing in class, I think I'm going to plan to write this paper discussing how civil disobedience can be seen in modern times through using social networks online such as twitter. The Iran election is a hot topic right now and so I think I'm going to use this as my main modern times example and continue to tie Thoreau's essay into what I'm studying through the social networks.
