Thumbnail testing is critical. @charlie_2221 says thumbnails that trigger a "curiosity gap" work best. "I think there’s a natural instinct to try to highlight the best quotes or moments...but we quickly learned that our most successful videos leave something up to mystery."
Every American should be able to live, work, and care for their families, yet costs are soaring, and this promise is out of reach for too many people in America today.
Laleh Ispahani shares why we’re doubling down on our work in the U.S. with a $300 million investment that will expand rights, foster economic dignity, and rebuild our democracy.
This builds on our decades-long work in the U.S. and around the world.
We are proud to announce a bold new $300 million initiative to improve the daily lives of Americans and stand up for the rule of law while strengthening rights and freedoms under attack across the United States as we approach the 250th anniversary of the founding of the republic.
This investment reflects our commitment to defending against efforts to erode freedoms and civil liberties in the United States and our belief that economic security and rights must advance together to protect democracy.
We will give grants to organizations working at the national, state, and local levels that defend civil liberties, stand for the rule of law, expand civil rights, and create economic opportunity.
These commitments build on the significant investments Open Society has made in the United States to advance rights, equity, and justice, and represent a meaningful expansion of our work on democracy reform and economic justice.
They complement other ongoing Open Society initiatives in the U.S., including on drug policy reform, migration, U.S. foreign policy, and our impact investing and strategic litigation work.
We hope the ceasefire holds, but can't ignore that conflict continues in Lebanon.
@OpenSociety stands with this coalition in affirming our calls for the laws of war to be upheld, especially the protection of civilians, and accountability for those who violate international law.
