Sharing our Playbook
Now more than ever, political activism is taking place on the Internet. Massive political movements sweep across social media message boards on a regular basis. Chatbots help people register to vote in upcoming elections. Protest activities go viral through peer-to-peer messaging apps. But while technology offers new and groundbreaking opportunities to connect with others, it also creates new challenges for anyone trying to break through the noise and connect with others about important political campaigns and movements.
Fight for the Future is an organization born in the trenches of online political activism. We led the 2012 Internet Blackout, rallying massive tech companies like Google, Reddit, and WordPress to help defeat the infamous Stop Online Piracy Act. We pressured the FCC to pass Title II net neutrality protections in 2015, then worked with legal experts and state lawmakers to restore net neutrality after the FCC revoked these same Title II protections in 2017. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Are you approaching a major inflection point in your campaign and need to create an online action that can reach a massive audience? Are you looking to launch a new campaign with visuals and messaging that will move hearts and minds? Do you want to find ways to speak with a strong voice online using design, images, code, and video?
We’ve got your back. We know how to create online campaigns that connect with millions of people, and we’ve built the digital tools necessary to turn ordinary folks into passionate political activists. We’d like to share our playbook with you.
Poor People’s Campaign
When COVID-19 forced the Poor People’s Campaign to cancel their planned in-person June 2020 march on the nation’s capital, we helped transform the activity into a massive online gathering where people could watch inspiring videos, contact their lawmakers, and post their personal stories about struggling with poverty.
Women Engaged
Working with civil rights group Women Engaged, we created a website that allowed people to register to vote and request voter assistance to participate in the historic 2021 Georgia runoff elections.
Digital Climate Strike
We helped create a coalition of more than 10,000 websites participating in a Digital #ClimateStrike that inspired millions of people to demand an end to the age of fossil fuels.
Earth Day Live
We helped produce a three-day livestream event commemorating the 50th anniversary of Earth Day and encouraging people to take action to protect our shared environment.
