Canada's Trucker Protests: Online and Offline

To discuss the Canadian trucker protests and the relationship between topics networked activism, social media manipulation, extremism and law enforcement- as well as the potential for Canadian convoys to inspire similar actions in the US, where right wing media personalities have embraced the idea- we speak with two experts: Joan Donovan, Ph.D., the Research Director of the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy. Amarnath Amarasingam, Ph.D., Assistant Professor in the School of Religion at Queen's University in Ontario, Canada. This interview was recorded on Monday, February 14th, 2022.
