Are You Going to Netroots This Year? Let's Meet Up!
The annual Netroots Nation conference is a great opportunity for progressives from across the country to come together and strategize for the year ahead. The conference is an opportunity to learn about new tools for organizing and advocacy, connect with other progressive organizations and media-makers, and hear about the complex problems that progressives today are seeking to solve.
This year’s Netroots Nation – held in Atlanta, GA, August 10-13 – comes at an especially critical moment in our nation’s history. Organizers and activists are fighting for the issues they care so deeply about, while being buffeted by a breakdown in institutions and rule of law.
ReThink is proud to be presenting at 2 panels and conducting one training this year. Come join us for some insights on messaging to counter anti-Muslim bias, how to prepare for predictable emergencies, and creating traditional media moments from social media moments!
