** I got this email in October, after a friend used MJ’s resources to join a local data center fight.
------------------------------------------------------------
** Behind the scenes of the victory? 2,982 petition signatures. A 2,200-member Facebook group of residents from both sides of the aisle. And now, 123 acres of mostly forested land are back in community hands rather than being rezoned for a “data center for no one.”
------------------------------------------------------------
** This kind of local civic engagement matters.
------------------------------------------------------------
** In 2025 alone, grassroots resistance has stopped $90 billion in data center projects ([link removed]) .
------------------------------------------------------------
** Communities are taking their digital futures into their own hands, with the support of tools and strategies developed by MediaJustice, like our report and toolkit, The People Say No: Resisting Data Centers in the U.S. South.
------------------------------------------------------------
** As Justin Hendrix reported ([link removed]) in Tech Policy Press, MediaJustice offers “an alternative future for your community, one that's different from the one that Silicon Valley wants to sell you.”
------------------------------------------------------------
** Please join us in rejecting the future imposed on us by the tech oligarchs and building something better for our neighbors, our children, and the planet.
------------------------------------------------------------
** Warmly,
------------------------------------------------------------
** This Giving Tuesday, please donate to MediaJustice ([link removed]) . Your donation supports a grassroots movement of people who have had enough of the future Silicon Valley wants to sell us.
------------------------------------------------------------
** Every gift leads to more packed city council meetings, more community engagement, and more wins.
