We've all heard how social media has played a role in the Middle East protests but what about in youth deportation cases?
A group called the Dreamers brings people together to rally support for youths facing deportation. Twitter is able to bring the issue into the public realm and gain support for individual cases that are remotely scattered around the country. By drawing mass support for these cases, they make it into the popular media and groups combine efforts to stop the youths from getting deported.
What do you think about this group? Do you think it will continue to be effective?

I think its a great initiative. However, it is not clear whether or not this will be effective in preventing unjustified deportation and overcoming bureaucracy. Once a deportation order is given, I do no think people tweeting and rallying through twitter will be able to reverse such a decision.
I agree with Xavier - I love the support it will generate but not sure how effective it will be. If it is a super compelling story than mainstream media will cover it and that might reach a politician and then maybe...that's the best you can hope for I guess!
I think with the volatile state of the budget too at this moment. These sort of things need money and with all the cuts currently happening it seems impossible for good programming to get any sort of funding.
