May 25, 2017 Changing the Conversation These creators are using YouTube to address tough social issues
The Webbys is all about honoring the best of the Internet, and there’s nothing better than using the Internet to make the case for greater tolerance and empathy towards others. Which is why The Webbys has partnered with YouTube to highlight the work of Franchesca Ramsey,Amani Al-Khatahtbeh, and Humza Arshad as part of the YouTube Creators for Change program: a global initiative dedicated to amplifying the voices of people tackling difficult social issues with their YouTube channels. These three creators, and many others like them, are taking on some of the most challenging problems we face today, like hate speech, extremism and xenophobia, by starting a conversation with their global audiences about how to combat those issues. We’re thrilled to showcase their work. Learn all about this emerging form of online activism in the YouTube Creators for Change video.
