  • Summary

  • We are sure you will agree that there are few rights as sacred as the right to vote. Our ancestors struggled to ensure the right to vote for women, people of color, and other marginalized groups. Unfortunately, every election cycle there are nefarious efforts to sway electoral outcomes or influence elections in a way that benefits persons with extreme wealth and power.

    This has always been a concern. However, with the emergence of artificial intelligence and deep fake accounts, we must be savvy, well-informed, and watchful. But how can we flag misinformation when some of the things that appear true may be false? We want to discuss and share resources to help you vet the information you receive. On this episode we will welcome Mike Webb and Danielle Davis as guests on the live recording of the Faith Talks podcast.

    We’ll discuss electoral misinformation that targets marginalized groups and unsuspecting voters. For background, Davis is the director of technology policy at the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, and Webb is the senior vice president for communications for the News Literacy Project. You will leave this recording with tools to help you and the people you know discern information and vote with confidence.
