How can University sponsored events leverage their reach, build communities and keep the conversations going after the conference ends? Using as a case study the Dred Scott conference held by the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice in April, we will discuss how history relates to the present and future. We will consider how the internet and new technologies can help universities as they work to convene social and cultural gatherings (as opposed to purely academic).
Facilitator: David Harris (Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice), Dan Gillmor (Berkman Fellow, Darby DeChristopher (Harvard Law School Media Services)

Listen to Dan Gillmor’s Citizens Media Series event, Engaging with the News”. Held at the Berkman Center, this informal discussion explores how people are using new media technologies to become citizen journalists.
“In a world of democratized media, we dont have to settle anymore for the newspaper that a carrier drops in the driveway or the 5 oclock news broadcast. Even the traditional media are offering new choices, including podcasts and outbound links, but this is only a starting point. We can, and should, assemble our own news reports from the vast data streams. We can use tools to help navigate our way through the masses of information, but the human component remains crucial. Recommendation systems and other emergent notions can help answer the question of who and what is trustworthy in a world where anyone can publish.”
Dan Gillmor is the founder & director of the Center for Citizen Media, author of We the Media and a Berkman Center fellow.
