If you're feeling anxious about misinformation campaigns surrounding the 2020 election, your fears are justified; according to Ashley Bryant and Andre Banks, Co-Leaders of the Win Black/Pa'Lante Initiative, Black voters were the #1 target in 2016, where foreign actors flooded social media platforms impersonating Black leaders and reached millions of followers, driving voter suppression and record-low turnout in the general election. In today's episodes, Ashley and Andre detail how their campaign and partners are using specialized methods to prevent misinformation in this 2020 election cycle and additionally how they're engaging African-American and Latinx voters in battleground states.
