Is "social media" a movement or a tool for change?

My experience with this "social media" has been that far too many people aren't going beyond this "social media" to actually get out among people to talk, meet face-to-face and engage in action of one kind or another.

We need to bring people out into the streets; we need to organize a new political movement and party that is anti-capitalist, anti-monopoly, anti-imperialist which has as its objective challenging Wall Street for political and economic power where people are brought together to create the kind of country at peace most people want to live in... where people come before profit.

In my opinion, we need to view "social media" as one of many tools we need to use, but not exclusively use, for social change.

Get out and share what you learn via social media with friends, neighbors, people you work with.

Organize little meetings with a few people around your kitchen table or in your living room. Organize bigger meetings, forums, debates and roundtables in church basements, community centers and union halls.
