John,
In the 2016 election, we saw how companies like Cambridge Analytica can use social media to illegally manipulate and influence voters.
It’s no secret that social media has quickly become the new battleground for politics and a place where many voters, especially young people, are being exposed to political ideas for the first time.
White supremacists and neo-nazis are using social media to radicalize vulnerable people and spread their extremist ideas – and we need to fight back by spreading truth, justice, and equality in the digital world. That’s where you come in, John.
Will you help defend our values online by joining our Digital Defenders team? With enough people, we can counter the influence of far-right extremists like Cambridge Analytica from the grassroots.

We’re building a massive cohort of online canvassers to transform the public narrative on civic engagement in key online spaces that influence our culture and politics. We’re training women and allies across the nation to reclaim the narrative, to tell our stories, counter the misinformation and silence the trolls.
As a Digital Defender, you will engage on social media to defend and support progressive values and stop misinformation at the source before it goes viral. And the best part is, you can do all of this from the comfort of your couch.
The internet can be a dark place where white supremacy and extremism thrives. But with your help, we can engage people online as a force for good by spreading truth and justice, and encouraging people to get active in their communities and the political process.
Sign up to be a Digital Defender now and you’ll be invited to a training in March.
See you on the internet,
Rachel Carmona
Women’s March Team
