We’ll explore how organizers are finding new ways to “beat the algorithm” and keep their audiences – and themselves – engaged.
Social media fatigue and desensitization to global crises often occur online, especially when the situation has persisted for decades. So how do you keep the world interested in your cause? Social networks have proven to be a powerful tool for mobilization and awareness. In this episode, we speak with a Palestinian activist, a climate activist, and a feminist organizer about their innovative techniques for getting the world talking. We discuss the importance of storytelling and building an online community to effectively educate, engage, and inspire action.
