Pakistan: Role of Social Media in Political and Social Evolution

Farnood Alam, well known writer and social analyst, asks why so many Pakistanis have turned to extreme violence against the country’s religious minorities. Is “good education” in schools the solution? Or is violence and intolerance because militarism is so widely celebrated in the media, assisted by the state? A thought provoking and intense lecture followed by discussion that covers the role of social media in political and social evolution in Pakistan. Presented by The Black Hole, Islamabad.
