Hello !
It’s official — MediaJustice is proud to announce our bold, new organizational strategy Shifting Terrain!
Learn About What Led to this Moment (http://)
Over the past several months, we’ve grappled with the fact that the collusion between Big Tech & Media and governments have shaped the unequal terrain that has harmed, exploited, and suppressed BIPOC marginalized voices.
It’s clear that though our movements have been able to secure major wins, we currently lack the power to truly turn the tide against the monopoly corporations hold over our most marginalized communities. The platforms we use to disseminate education, mobilize across communities, and bridge accessibility gaps are the same media that shadowban us, uphold hate speech in the name of free speech, and prioritize profit over people.
We believe it is our mandate and responsibility at this moment to wage fights that weaken the power of the media and tech industry and strengthen the power and capacity of the media justice movement.
It’s time to reimagine what it will take to truly reclaim our digital future. Here’s how we’ll do it:
* Deliver political education grounded in a racial justice analysis to advance a new, shared “common sense” for the role media and technology should play in our society.
* Close relationships and collaboration gaps between social movements and advocacy organizations through convenings and campaigns to build our collective power.
If social movements and the existing media and tech justice field can increase collaboration and be driven by a common vision for media and technology, then we can create the conditions to dismantle the existing media and tech system and build people-centered governance over media and technology.
We didn’t make this move lightly. Read more about this integral moment in the media and tech landscape and how we hope our interventions will impact our movement for liberation.

A change this big cannot be undertaken alone. As we navigate the emerging AI era and the upcoming election, we call to everyone who dreams of a just digital world: we need you with us.
In collective solidarity,
Steven Renderos, Executive Director
