This program is designed to help spot disinformation and misinformation. Everyone wants to make the best possible decisions for themselves, their families, and their communities. But in order to do that, people need access to factual information free from bias or manipulation. Between social media sites that push extreme, controversial, and even deceptive content onto users’ timelines to lure them into staying online; the curation of individualized content for users based on algorithms that keep people in information siloes; and the rampant disinformation and manipulation campaigns that skew readers’ perspectives, truth can be hard to come by. Unvarnished truth presented without an agenda may be almost impossible to find. And common ground is nowhere to be found. This is a critical issue that transcends politics, and everyone is vulnerable regardless of their views. It’s never “the other side’s problem.” Being armed with knowledge about the war on truth is the first step toward ending it, and this program will provide a starting point. The presenter: Jennifer Slavik Lohman who is the Director of the St. Louis Area Voter Protection Coalition; Chair of the Anti-Disinformation Committee for the Missouri Voter Protection Coalition; and a member of the national Election Protection Anti-Disinformation Working Group. Jennifer is also the Regional Coordinator for the MOVPC’s Election Protection Field Program as well as a member of the Transformative Justice Coalition’s Voting Rights Alliance and the League of Women Voters. Jennifer graduated from Notre Dame Law School and worked as a litigator and federal judicial clerk before turning to voter advocacy work. She lives in St. Louis with her husband Don and two of their three (nearly all) grown children. Questions? Send us an Email
