Скачать или смотреть Discovering safe community in online spaces | Melody Yoon | TEDxASUWest

Student and social media butterfly, an extrovert of extroverts, Melody Yoon carries her charismatic nature through life on the internet as well as the real world. In this talk, she shares her experience with finding safe places in less than conventional spaces. Melody Yoon is currently an undergraduate student at Arizona State University pursuing a bachelor’s degree in English with a certification in secondary education, excited to share her love of literature with the future generation of Americans. When she isn’t reading and writing for school, you can find her reading and writing about how disempowered people are shaping the landscape of online discourse. As a queer Korean-American, Melody is fascinated by the connections marginalised groups make in online spaces, in lieu of potentially antagonistic offline environments, and discussing universal themes in all forms of writing, including video games.
