These have been </span><span>acts of engaged, enraged intellectual citizenship in three parts: 1. an online digital media primer about fakenews, </span><span><a href="http://scalar.usc.edu/nehvectors/100hardtruths-fakenews/index" target="_blank" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://scalar.usc.edu/nehvectors/100hardtruths-fakenews/index&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1531512334899000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGf-faqXaVcCubm9Yahtc5cVTc1MQ"><span>#100hardtruths-#fakenews</span></a></span><span>, produced over the first 100 days of the administration; 2. nine Fake News Poetry Workshops held over the spring semester of 2018, these making use of that online primer and co-facilitated by poets in different locations and communities, </span><span>and 3. an action plan to further mobilize the primer, poems, and workshops to a scale larger than my own personal pedagogy, still in process. These experiments are first and foremost acts of civic engagement qua pedagogy, art-making, and community-building. They are organized to create and make use of responsive formats, processes, and places to better express our keen knowledge, concern, and curiosity about inter-related phenomena given the current crisis of fake news: self, community, and the world, the fake and real, our own power and that of (social) media.</span> ER -
