#HappeningNow, tweet-chat: "Harnessing the Internet to Speak Truth to Power."
I shall be posing qns in thread below which each of my panelists shall take on in the replies. I may also prompt clarifications. Audience can contribute to the conversation using, #WomenOnlineVoices

Inviting my panelists now: @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo and @KanyomozRabwoni. Let's get right into it:

1. What are the ways in which Ugandan women on the internet, including yourself, are speaking truth to power?

#WomenOnlineVoices

2. Now, critics of online activism like to say that the work here doesn't yield much. Are there any indicators for you that the power holders are listening? If so, what are those?

Qn3. Speaking truth to power for anyone, but especially for women, is a daunting task. What propels you all to do it regardless?

Qn4. Repercussions. What examples of pushback have you received from the status quo for speaking truth to power?

Qn5. Any victories registered, support and solidarity perhaps? @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo @KanyomozRabwoni

Qn6. Is women's freedom of expression guaranteed on the internet? If not, what can be done, policy-wise?

And finally, Qn7. We know that the work is as exhausting (physically, mentally and emotionally) as it is, imperative. What are some of the ways in which you decompress/cope - (call it self-care)? @KPatu_, @_tracyrubondo @KanyomozRabwoni
