When it comes to exposing your own personal identity! I think African American struggle putting their personal identity on social media, because they don’t want to be looked at different. They try not to put their personal identity to stay in the norm and try to fit in. All throughout history you always heard different stories and watched videos about slavery. Now it may not been all slavery but a good part of the reason we won’t put our info out there is because we are too ashamed too. Somebody might look at you the wrong way and stir the wrong way. Somebody else could judge off the personal identity and even use against someone. Another reason why I don’t think African Americans put their personal identity on social media is to try to fit in. You may have someone that wants to be seen one way but if the pesonal identity stuff is reported on our social media page it may not be the same outcome as it would have before. The last reason I believe African Americans refuse to put their stuff on social media is to run away from the issues. If before your info was on social media and you had a bad outcome from whatever you did you would want to avoid the problem by stopping the posting of personal identity all together. It seems like it could be better at times to remain anonymous than have your personal info on social media. Another simple reason why they might not post it over social media is because they do not want you knowing their business.
