Facebook’s Civil Rights Zoom Call; The New College Campus

"There are no nuances to white nationalism.” Over 750 companies have agreed to pull or pause their Facebook advertising spending as part of the Stop Hate for Profit campaign. After a virtual meeting about moderating racist content with Mark Zuckerberg, Sheryl Sandberg, and other Facebook executives, the organizers of the boycott expressed deep disappointment. Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt, one of the organizers and participants in the civil rights Zoom call, urges Facebook to see and act on the “thick black lines about what’s in bounds and out of bounds” when it comes to upholding civil rights on its platform. Plus, Purdue University President Mitch Daniels lays out his plan for reopening campus and keeping students safe in the fall semester.
