At this week's Round Table Emmanuel, Emily, and Heba dove into a can't-miss conversation with a true pioneer in media transformation: Steve Rosenbaum, the Founder and Director ofThe Center for Sustainable Media.The mission of Sustainable Media Center is to act as a catalyst to change media for the better, working with young people to give them agency over the media they consume, create, and share. With a rich background as an author, entrepreneur, and filmmaker, Steve has been at the forefront of catalyzing positive change in media.
We delve into an array of critical topics impacting our digital world, from the recent groundbreaking lawsuit against Meta, challenging the way social networks impact child safety, to exploring the roots of social media's perilous landscape. Steve brings insights to the table on a myriad of crucial points: the struggles young people face in this digital age, the generational gap in understanding, and the crucial steps needed to bridge that divide. Together, we grapple with the complexities of social media, dissect the actions being taken by lawmakers, and explore tangible solutions for a safer and more responsible media environment.
Listen in as we unravel the dark path that turned social media into a minefield, uncovering the real struggles of today's youth, and decoding why adults just can't crack the GenZ code. Brace for a showdown as we explore the clash between generations and reveal lawmakers' potential missteps. Oh, and hold tight for the Meta lawsuit bombshell! But fear not—we're not just here to dissect problems; we’re crafting solutions for a safer digital world. Thank you for listening!
