Cinemassively: Civil Liberties in Teen Second Life

Filed under: Video, Events, real-world, Events, in-game, Second Life, Cinemassively, Machinima, Education

I'm going on a field trip to the Teen Grid today to learn more about some of Global Kids' new projects. In the meantime, I want to show you the cutest video about the teens. It was prepared by the GK in-house Machinimator, Kathy Vega, for their discussion on Philanthropy and Virtual Worlds.

In the video, Blue Linden talks about some of the efforts that the teens have made to protect their grid. One resident, Cheesepuff Barnard, was discouraged by all of the adults present in their world, so he put up a protest sign asking for them to leave. This led to a meeting, where Linden Lab took action by redistricting. Another example used was the protest march, led by Alex Harbinger, for inter-grid commerce. Unfortunately, that issue hasn't been resolved yet.
