How does this moment provide a political opportunity for disinformers to wedge issues related to race\, immigration\, and the economy?  How does protest misinformation coupled with health misinformation function to suppress dissent? How might the conditions of the pandemic impact civil rights\, especially in the lead up to a contentious election? \n12:00 – 12:45 PM: Discussion with Joan Donovan\, Dr. Alondra Nelson\, and Thabisile Griffin\n12:45 – 1:30 PM: Overview of the Media Manipulation Life Cycle\, Wedge Issues\, and How to Detect the Tactics of Disinformers \nThis workshop is limited to 30 participants\, to be considered as an attendee\, please apply here.
