We are honored to share that we were mentioned by President Obama during his “Challenges to Democracy in the Digital Information Realm” keynote when he talked about “a new generation of activists” who are leading the way in addressing the problem of disinformation and polarization in the U.S.:
“And the good news is we’ve got a new generation of activists that seem to be ready to keep moving… I’ve had the privilege of meeting young leaders in our Obama Foundation network, like… Juliana Tafur, who’s using documentary film and curated workshops to reduce polarization and help Americans connect across differences. Young people everywhere are recognizing that this is a problem. They’re not just griping about it, they’re doing their part to fix it. And the rest of us need to follow their lead.” – Former President Barack Obama, April 21, 2022
