When Media Is the Second Issue: Connecting with Social Justice Organizations

For many of us at this conference, media is the primary lens through which we see all political activism. So how can we engage groups that are focused on immigrant rights, workers’ rights or the environment? If media reform is to be part of a broad movement for social justice, we will need to answer that question. This session fea­tures successful partnerships that crossed movement boundaries to take on shared media policy issues. Come prepared with stories of your own successes and failures. After brief presentations, we’ll break up into smaller discussion groups to strategize about how to work with issue groups in our communities on media policy issues.
