Friend, <[link removed]>
Two weeks ago, we raised the alarm about the Trump campaign using ads with Nazi imagery — and for the first time ever, Facebook took down ads by Trump for violating their policy on hate.
Now there’s a groundswell of pressure building on Facebook and other tech platforms to do more to combat bigotry and disinformation.
We put together a brand new video to give you the full picture of how Trump’s Nazi ads came down and what Facebook must do next to make its platform safe for all of us. Watch it now:

The mounting pressure from organizers, community groups, and corporations is working, and we must keep it up.
“Almost a third of advertisers are considering joining a month-long boycott of Facebook” as a result of the Stop Hate for Profit campaign organized by partners, including our friends at Color Of Change.1
An exposé by the Washington Post revealed Facebook’s VP of Global Public Policy, Joel Kaplan, continues to get in the way of necessary changes to the platform — making the demand for his firing more important than ever.2
Now you can watch our new video and add your name to the petition “Facebook: Take Trump's racism as seriously as his Nazi ads.” <[link removed]>
Thanks for all you do,
The Bend the Arc team
