This is the first event organized by the #MovementTech hosters behind the Rise Against Big Tech campaign, otherwise known as #RABT.

I'm in community tech inception.

@mayfirst had the foresight to discuss the post election landscape*now* to meet the moment more prepared.

Here are the notes that came out of the question,

"What are the general messages and general approaches technologists should take post-election to support movements seeking better digital security?"

I worked with NOVA Web Coop to launch a new site for Uber, Lyft and other independent drivers unionizing in Colorado.

We used #LibreOrganize , a #FreeSoftware web platform built for unions.

For anyone going to DrupalCon next week, I'm co-organizing the Nonprofit Summit and I think it's going to be real informative. We're also setting up a directory people can opt into for networking and organizing.

Check it out!

Does anyone have insight into #Jitsi governance? I couldn't find anything documented.

Also, what is the deal with 8x8 the company that fully funds Jitsi?

It's nice that the project is open-source but the funding source and who it is actually accountable to is really important to get answers on if we're recommending it as a #MovementTech tool.

#LibreOrganize is a #FreeSoftware website and member portal for unions and other movement groups.

I tried installing it locally and it only took me a couple of minutes to get up and running. Really impressed with this project so far.

Here's a video I made showing the install process.

Much love to the Signal team for improving groups in a time where *so many of us* are relying on it to protect one another and tear down white supremacy. #MovementTech

#FightFor15 fast food workers are on strike, but sharing their stories online instead of gathering in public.

I see this as an important shift in terrain that us movement techies should adjust to.

how do we show up for this moment?

Mobilizon is now federating. It's inspiring to see the development of this community-driven tool steadily chugging along.
