Mission

MediaJustice is a national hub organizing for racial and economic equity in a digital age. We are committed to winning structural changes in our media and technology systems to create racial equity by centering the rights and voices of people of color, lower-income communities, and all those affected by current and historic discrimination or disadvantage.

About

In FY19, MediaJustice successfully advocated for the passage of the Save the Internet Act in Congress, pressured the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to pass the nation's first facial recognition ban, produced a report on the use of electronic monitoring in pretrial court proceedings, published a set of civil rights concerns on law enforcement use of social media, sued the FBI to compel them to respond to a Freedom of Information Act request on their surveillance activities of so-called "Black Identity Extremist", and launched corporate accountability campaigns targeting Facebook and Twitter to pressure them to address hateful activities on their platform. The organization expanded the membership of the MediaJustice Network to 106 dues paying organizations and produced educational events and activities that reached over 700 people.
