Overwrite: How We Advocate

Missed our first #Overwrite Virtual Event? Watch it now! Overwrite: How We Advocate - a discussion on advocacy in the quarantine era with Rashad Robinson (President, Color Of Change) and Shaniqua McClendon (Political Director, Crooked Media).

This year marks our 25th anniversary. It also marks a time during which we’re all navigating rapid change. Throughout this turbulent time, the Internet has accelerated to become the tool that holds us together—while shedding light on systems that need to change. Since March, we’ve seen phenomenal innovation across the world, from the invention of new platforms, sites and virtual experiences to products that meet real world needs. The impact of this moment on our industry is enormous and we will be bringing together the individuals, companies and groups who are using their platforms to create a better Internet and a better future.

Sponsored by Slack, WP Engine, and YouGov, the Overwrite talks and events will be focused around the findings of our new Webby Trend Report: Overwrite Tomorrow: How the global pandemic created an indispensable Internet, and ignited the urgency to build a better future.
