This is part of an ongoing series where I review some of the ads purchased by the Russians. In doing so I hope we can get a better understanding of what they were trying to do, and how to recognize it the next time we’re faced with propaganda.

If you want to follow along, the ads can all be downloaded here. All of today’s ads can be found in the 2016-q4/2016-11 folder.

Here are the totals for November 2016:

  • Black Matters–78
  • Blacktivist–29
  • Woke Blacks–19
  • Williams & Kalvin–18
  • Pan Afroots–8
  • Protect Black Gun Ownership–8
  • Watch the Police–6
  • Being Patriotic–4
  • Nefertiti’s Community–4
  • Black 4 Black–4
  • Black Baptist Church–2
  • Heart of Texas–2

THIS IS AN OPEN THREAD. Take care and be well
