SOCIAL CONSCIOUSNESS
◦ Social consciousness is consciousness shared by individuals within a society.
◦ To be conscious is to be aware of something.
◦ When you share a social message for all to see, you are spreading knowledge.
◦ When others are educated or enlightened by your message…even motivated by it…you are
creating social consciousness.
SOCIAL CONSCIOUS
