We're speaking directly to the issues at hand, how we support ourselves in this moment, and what organizers and organizations can do to build resilience in their communications and activism.

  • The history of Big Tech's influence on social media
  • What lead to the TikTok ban
  • What are the political, tech, and social implications
  • Adapting to changing digital landscape
  • Strategic advice for communicators in this moment

In just one week, we are seeing just how quickly our digital lives can change as the new administration starts up. Joe and I plan to jump on throughout the year to dig in when there are big news events.

We're also introducing a private podcast feed next month so that we can go deeper on navigating this tech, media, political, and economic landscape including actionable steps for organizing & communications and how we stay human. Be sure to upgrade by this week to get our 25% off memberships ending Friday.
