Over the course of the semester, I analyzed social media posts as the authors of them attempted to interpret the complex, difficult, and rapidly evolving events following George Floyd's murder at the hands of Minneapolis police officers. This image is my interpretation and application of key components of the vernacular genre I identified as having gone viral on Instagram last summer- the viral activist info post. As people online scrambled to make meaning, collaboratively and affectively, of the racial justice uprising, they used Instagram's photo carousel feature as a vehicle to design and distribute explanatory posts that also tapped into emotion.
