If a police's power is held in their gun, the media's power is held in their stories.  What kind of stories are being told about Detroit? What kind of stories can our communities tell when we come together?  

Join members of the Detroit Digital Justice Coalition this Saturday for a workshop and strategy session on how to shape Detroit's Future, 140 characters at a time.  

We will share information about how three programs are currently using the #detroitfuture "hashtag" on Twitter to build a narrative of hope, justice and transformation in Detroit: Detroit Future Schools, Detroit Future Youth and Detroit Future Media.  

We will break down dominant stories about Detroit and build our own stories from the ground up.  

This training will also include:
    •    the basics of how to set up a twitter account
    •    how to use twitter on your phone versus your computer
    •    how to use twitter protocols (such as RT, @, and #)
    •    how to use twitter for organizing & promoting events
    •    how to use twitter as your one-stop-shop news source
    •    how to choose between different twitter software options

Please arrive at 12:30 if you don't currently have a twitter account and want to set one up before the training.  

By the end of this training you will be an official Twitter community storyteller, helping to build the collective narrative of #detroitfuture
