Need to reintroduce civility to the conversation.
Remember that people can get involved with cult movement for community, due to fear...
Approach them from a place of compassion.
First, goal is to get them to re-engage with you, not deprogram.

The Latin American community is being targeted to get disinfo from the platforms here in the US AND from their home country. They're building ecosystems to push the online info on Spanish radio, TV and Newspapers as well. @vcardenasDC #NN21

#NN21 Keynote: Rebalancing The Supreme Court: Why Progressives Must Take Back the [Stolen] Court to Save our Democracy with @SenTinaSmith @MondaireJones @RepBarbaraLee & Sarah Lipton-Lubet of @TakeBacktheCt. (via @actdottv) twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
We have a 6/3 far right hyper-partisan super majority. It is hostile to democracy itself. Policies that are enormously popular across the spectrum are at risk of not being in the #BuildBackBetter Act because of corporate power. -- @MondaireJones #NN21
"I was stunned but I wasn't surprised" - @TinaSmithMN on the Texas ban. She has supported #ExpandTheCourt for years. The Federalist Society has had a multi-generational plan to take over our courts. "We have to get to 13 members to restore balance." We must #TakeBackTheCourt

@MandlaTDeskins @navicularity @JackieFielder @J_LaRosa415 @EquityEconLab @Tran @urbanpartnersla So many of us know about commercial banks and credit unions, but public banking is getting attention in US. Public banks challenge Wall Street and empower local governments to invest in affordable housing and renewable energy while tackling racial inequity.
Q: What is going on federally and in organizing nationally for public banking?

Tax evasion, skyrocketing charges for critical drugs and Covid vaccine access are some of the important issues we need to address to ensure EVERYONE is safe. @ChiBornfree #NN21
Access to vaccines is the first thing we have to address to end the pandemic. We are using shareholder resolutions, direct action, and various types of advocacy to ensure EVERYONE has access. - @ChiBornfree @OxFam #PeoplesVaccine #NN21
Meeting people where they're at and drilling down on personal relationships to build a global movement is how we sustain a grassroots movement to win a @PeoplesVaccine for all. @emjsanderson #NN21
Are you talking to people in a way that resonates and shows them how you are being part of the solution? Provide consistent contact and relevant content that drives action - give people opportunities to take action and make change and donations will come - @JamarrBrown #NN21
Build real relationships with ALL of your donors - not just the big dollar donors. - @danysiggy #NN21
Broadband access for ALL is critical to everything we do. We can't make real change for everyone, we can't provide resources or raise money unless everyone has access. - @JamarrBrown #NN21
"Universal rent control is a Jewish Issue, abolishing ICE is a Jewish issue." -- @carlyncowen of @TheJewishVote #NN21
Carlyn points to how @TheJewishVote was the first space that understood their intersecting identities as Filipine-American AND Jewish and queer. @KUngernyc speaks to how intergenerational Jewish left organizing is.
When @jaslinforqueens, who is Sikh ran for Council in Queens she was able to connect across faith communities in the district. The stereotypes of Jewish voters in NYC being moderate just wasn't true once you actually do the outreach.

Tech is supposed to be the great equalizer but things aren't much better. Thoughts?
Tech is supposed to be the great equalizer but things aren't much better. Thoughts?
From Dr. Harrison:
There is intention that tech should be an equalizer, but not that way. "Not sure I buy it." Tech benefit often harms communities most discriminated again or already vulnerable.

The number of people would join a union rose from 1/3 to nearly 1/2 in the last decade - the actual decline in unionization is a direct result of corporate opposition - the PRO Act can clean up a lot of these unfair labor practices - @hshierholz #NN21
We have to have labor laws that work for people in traditional trades AND for the jobs coming in the modern economy. The work forces of the future need the same protections. President of the Alaska AFL-CIO @abnmama
'Right To Work' states have passed laws with sole intent to make it more difficult to organize and make it harder for cities to have union friendly policies - we need the PRO Act to ensure everyone can make a living and thrive - Tucson Mayor @TucsonRomero #NN21
