My definition of a Well Informed 21st Century Citizen




In our era of rapid technological advancement it is constantly a struggle to remain well informed. With all the diverse perspectives and ideas floating around social media hubs such as the television, radio, and Internet it is rather hard not to stay informed if you know where to look, however it is just as easy to become misinformed. A well informed 21st century citizen has to be able to adapt well to advancements and have reliable sources.  A 21st Century citizen can also use these sources to inform others and to help responsibly debate the many different arguments that today’s politics offer.

Yup. And for some reason or another I can't get rid of the black background behind the lettering...
