Alum Jen Schradie in KPFA

On July 15th, BCNM Alum Jen Schradie and her work was featured on KPFA's Against the Grain! Schradie testified to the politically conservative nature of digital activism.

Against the Grain is a radio program that provides analysis and commentary on subjects important to progressive and radical thinking and activism. Against the Grain is co-produced and co-hosted by Sasha Lilley and C.S. Soong.

From the episode description:

If I asked you to picture a digital activist, I’d wager that you’d envision a progressive. But sociologist Jen Schradie says that’s misguided. In fact, the typical profile of an internet activist is a conservative. Schradie discusses the internet and the left and right.
