    Hey Sam,
    I just wanted to say that I love how you took this perspective. Your presentation was really interesting and I think that it is great that you decided to shine light on this topic and educate people!

    HI sam, your presentation really interesting, especially your focus on Mitch Brown and queer visibility in AFL. I have 3 question about your videos. I like your point about hashtags helping people connect.

    But do you think algorithms might also limit who actually gets seen?

    You talked about parasocial relationships. Do you think that really builds a community, or is it more one-sided?

    The difference between AFL and AFLW was interesting. Why do you think they’re so different? Can social media really change that?
