In this powerful episode of The Shift, host Jessica Sanchez explores the disinformation crisis threatening American democracy — and what we can do about it. Drawing from her groundbreaking book Democracy Unveiled: Dissecting the Shadows of Misinformation, Jessica connects the dots between today’s political chaos, deepfake propaganda, voter suppression efforts, and the erosion of public trust in media.
You’ll walk away with real tools for fighting back — from spotting fake news to engaging in meaningful civic action. This is more than a conversation; it’s a wake-up call and a guide for reclaiming your voice in 2025.
