Dr. Heidi Li Feldman and Tim Chambers make the case for the Fediverse and other decentralized social networks being crucial for enabling activism.

In a guest article co-written by Heidi Li Feldman and Tim Chambers, the case is made in favor of political organizing in the Fediverse, rather than through corporate social media.

Both authors bring up case studies in their experience in grassroots fundraising and advocacy for the Harris-Walz presidential campaign through Mastodon and Bluesky.
