Published July 14, 2023 at 5:16 AM EDT A MARTÍNEZ, HOST:Black Lives Matter is marking its 10th anniversary this week. The movement began in the wake of the acquittal of the shooter who killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed Black teenager. The police killings of Michael Brown and George Floyd, among others, put BLM at the center of the push for criminal justice reform. Joining us now is Black Lives Matter co-founder Aya Tometi.Now, Aya, if you can take us back 10 years, when the movement first began, what was its mission? What did it set out to do?AYO TOMETI: Its mission was really to ensure that the voices and concerns of Black people were being heard. We were tired of the countless numbers of people that were being killed - if it was vigilantes, if it was law enforcement, if it was security guards. We were just sick and tired of hearing these stories in our communities. We were sad. We were devastated. And we knew that we had to take the tradition of community organizing that leaders like Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and many others have taught us, and we needed to remind the larger public that we

Not too long ago, the job hunt followed a somewhat standard process: scan the local newspaper for open positions; print out your resume, cover letter and portfolio; paperclip it all in a manila folder and slot it into the nearest mailbox.Now, online job boards have created an infinite scroll of potential job opportunities to wade through. Professional social media has become a mainstay in some industries. Most recently, artificial intelligence has added another layer of complexity for job seekers to navigate.  Today's technology has led job seekers to make one critical mistake, according to career coach Sarah Doody."So many candidates in their job search just go to Glassdoor, Indeed or LinkedIn jobs, hit 'Quick Apply,' cross their fingers and hope it works out," Doody tells CNBC Make It. "People are not doing a good job at what I call 'pitching themselves' — taking the time to tailor or customize their resume, cover letter, email communications to the job they're applying to."She says that the ease of applying for jobs nowadays is a double-edged sword: Yes, it enables a candidate to apply to many roles at once, but it also means that more applicants are doing so, making it tougher to

In light of Meta launching its new social media platform Threads, we asked designers which social platforms they value most and how they use them. By Abbey Bamford July 12, 2023 4:42 pm July 12, 2023 4:42 pm Dragon Rouge executive director, global marketing and reputation James Byrne “At Dragon Rouge we focus mostly on LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter. LinkedIn is key as many of our clients and peers are on there, so it acts as a strong platform for sharing work and building awareness and reputation. Instagram is great as you can do more with it creatively across the feed, stories and reels, but our audience there is mostly future talent and peers, with some exceptions on the client-side, who are usually from design or creative discipline. Twitter can be good to work with using particular hashtags, especially around industry events or particular sectors. For example, if we are doing the rebrand of a football club it can really help to tag the club, and gets exposure with the ‘Twitterati’ outside of the marketing and design world. We have been working on new motion case studies for LinkedIn to showcase a whole project within one short video – this

New Delhi, July 11 (IANS) The Delhi High Court has asked social media platform LinkedIn to provide information regarding its grievance officers and the process they follow when receiving complaints under the IT (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules. A bench of Justice Prathiba M Singh further instructed LinkedIn to submit the regulations applicable to individuals who create profiles on its portal. The court also directed LinkedIn to make the physical and email addresses of its grievance officers publicly accessible on its website. The court’s order came on a response to a legal case filed by Tata Sky Ltd against LinkedIn and other entities. Tata Sky, a prominent Direct-To-Home (DTH) and Pay TV platform in India, underwent a rebranding last year and adopted the name Tata Play to reflect its expanded business endeavors. It claimed that several people had falsely represented themselves as employees of the company by creating profiles on LinkedIn. Tata Sky also filed a lawsuit against 37 individuals who, despite not being authorised retail sellers of its product, were accused of falsely presenting themselves as retailers of Tata Sky on their LinkedIn profiles.
