Welcome to Megaphone North Carolina

A campaign to build community and amplify our shared values

About us

The Megaphone NC Campaign is a community of like-minded individuals who want to change the conversation in North Carolina and work for a better future for all. Together, we’re working to combat disinformation and reach voters where they are – which, increasingly, is online. Our goals are to provide trustworthy information about elections, share stories about the issues that matter to North Carolinians and increase participation among new and progressive voters. The Megaphone NC Campaign is a project of Progress NC Action.

FAQs

Why Join Megaphone?

Megaphone is a network of volunteers (we call them amplifiers) who share progressive, research-based content on their social media and across their networks. Using a simple app called Megaphone, you can easily share content anywhere. Whether you have five minutes or five hours, ten followers or 10,000, you can join Megaphone and influence the political landscape of North Carolina.

How do I get access to the app?

Fill out an interest form. A member of our digital organizing team will create a log-in for you and then email you with instructions.

Can I see examples of Megaphone content?

Sure! Here are a few of the pieces of content available in our app.

What if I have problems with the app?

Everyone who has access to the app also should have contact with a digital organizer. You can email that person directly to ask for help. We also have a discord server (you’ll be sent an invite when you fill out the interest form) and hold regular office hours where you can join and have an organizer help you.

How can I connect with other people in the program?

We have both a Facebook group and a Discord server. You can request to join the Facebook group. To join the Discord server, let your digital organizer know that you would like an invite.

What will I see on the app?

You will see all of the content Megaphone has created. It shows up with the most recent content first. At the top, there’s a search bar, and you can use that to search by topic. Megaphone provides progressive content on a wide range of topics. It’s possible you may see content that doesn’t resonate with you or even content with which you disagree. Please keep scrolling and find something that does resonate with you.
