You know the power that social media has in uplifting the issues that matter most to us. You’ve seen the role of Twitter in cultivating racial justice movements, cultural conversations, celebration, and joy. More recently Twitter’s impact on our liberation has trickled down to other popular apps.
But under the influence of authoritarianism and fascism, our safe spaces are constantly under attack. From Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter, to Meta’s loosened restrictions on hate speech, these attacks have been detrimental to our ability to just be ourselves. And when we lose ourselves, we lose belief in our power to fight back.
Collaborate with racial justice advocates and digital communicators to explore new spaces to sustain our resistance. Our discussion will be centered around Mastodon—a platform that emphasizes decentralization—and the greater Fediverse, giving users more control of the content they see and engage with.
Join us via Zoom or you can listen in and chat via Owncast.
