Comments from social media can be cited in the body of your text. For example:
In a recent tweet, Cornel West reminds us not to treat Martin Luther King as "an isolated icon on a pedestal to be viewed as some figure in a museum. Let us learn from him and from them all" (@CornelWest, January 15, 2018).
If a formal footnote citation is needed, use the following format:
