Social Media for Venezuelan Change



The country of Venezuela is in turmoil. With widespread chaos and social unrest, the internet has become a sanctuary for many Venezuelans, inside and outside of the country, to vent their frustrations and support. 

It has been recently reported that the government has shut down Twitter and most other points of communication for the average Venezuelan. As a global society, should we have a call to action by spreading their message for them? What are your thoughts? Is Social Media the protest of the current day? We may not be able to run the streets of Caracas in support but can we do it digitally?
