Module 2 – F.A.I.R. Media

Mod 2 – Post #1

While I was looking up Aboriginal representation in the media, I came across this Facebook page. FAIR Media stands for Accurate Indigenous Representation. There are 10,488 likes on the page and it seems that many people post and comment along the issues of how Aboriginal people are represented in the media. It seems like a community of learning and sharing and it is an example of how the Internet has allowed Indigenous people connect and relate to one another as well as bring awareness to stereotypes/misconceptions.
