Friend, We know that White supremacists use platforms like Facebook and Twitter to organize and silence the speech of vulnerable communities and people fighting for justice. But what do those harms really look like — and how are those lives changed? Join the Change the Terms coalition on Tues., March 26, at 7 p.m. ET for an hour-long conversation on the impacts of far-right hate online. Following the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017, the tech industry finally started to take real steps to address the spread of hate speech online and the ways their platforms are used to organize, fund and recruit for White supremacists and other hateful online movements. But these companies need to do much more. Our all-star panel will explore the ways that online hate undermines the health and humanity of progressive activists, people of color, religious minorities, women and LGBTQIA people, and how we can hold tech companies accountable for the violence that occurs on their platforms. What: The Impacts of Online Hate When: Tues., March 26, at 7 p.m. ET Where: Wherever you are! RSVP here. You must register to participate in the webinar. Once registration is complete, you will receive custom call-in information. Be on the lookout for an email from [email protected].

Join us online on Tues., March 26, at 7 p.m. ET for a discussion about the real-life impacts of hate online and what we can do to hold tech companies accountable. |
