<\/p>\nIndividually, each graph says something different about the data. The map shows a majority of the tweets\u00a0concentrated in the U.S and the data corresponds to show the\u00a0majority of the tweets in English. The map combined with the pie chart of language show that the majority of the Tweets are in fact in English and located geographically in America.The people are responding through Twitter to President Donald Trump’s initial statements deemed anti-women’s rights. Looking at the number of tweets per day, it is interesting to see that when something big happens in world news, the number of tweets go up. For example, the number of tweets on 2\/9\/17 significantly increased over the other days of the week because an article was released asking people to get the word out about Senator McConnel being silenced. On this day, tons of people used the #whyImarch hashtag to raise awareness.The word cloud shows various\u00a0phrases that correspond to the hashtag, while the SNA shows specific connections between the words and\u00a0users. All together, we can draw certain conclusions about the hashtag as a whole. Since #whyImarch is a reform against U.S. politics, the map and pie chart of language show that the issue is mainly an American one.\u00a0During the time period I chose to collect data during, the\u00a0map specifically shows all but one of the tweets concentrated around the country, with only\u00a0one individual tweet in Spain. I looked into and found that there was a women’s march in St. Petersberg, which explains that singular dot on the particular day.<\/p>\n
The Social Network Analysis shows the conversation between different users, who is connected, and who is not. #WhyIMarch is the largest node, in which all of the other nodes are connected to. It was not surprising to see that #realdonaldtrump and #womensmarch are closely connected to #whyImarch, as this topic is about the women’s march and is standing up against President Donald Trump’s ideals. From this SNA graph, I was able to see that the Canadian Women’s march had many users tweeting about it, however those users had little to no connection with the American users. Then looking at the word cloud, I can see that all of the hashtags and users that accompany why I march, with women’s march being the largest word.<\/p>\n
I believe that Social Network Analysis and the World Cloud tell the strongest story combined. The SNA shows only words, and although it is aesthetically pleasing to the eye it does not reveal that cdnwomenmarch has actually very little to do with the American women’s march.Separately, the word cloud I created shows women’s march as the largest word, then maga, resist, women, trump, whyiresist, and cdnwomensmarch all in different sizes and colors. When analyzing the social network analysis, similar words pop up, such as realdonaldtrump, womensmarch, cdnwomensmarch, etc. However, it is interesting to see which are actually connected to each other! For example, cdnwomensmarch is disconnected from the majority of the nodes, since people in Canada are probably not tweeting about the same specific issues as people in America, and vice versa. It is also interesting to note that they are not connected.<\/p>\n
