[HHPOLITICALED @hhpoliticaled]

#misinformation is the grand-daughter to #propaganda which sources back to the cold-war. @mutalenkonde lays it out clearly on how to identify fake news: if the content makes you angry then do not engage with it.

[HHPOLITICALED @hhpoliticaled]

Most #disinformation and #misinformation tactics are pitting us [Black and Brown communities] against each other.

@rasjbaraka explains how important it is to identify false information so we don't #RT or share to our networks.
