I was at @Stanford with the @ObamaFoundation to talk about the rise of disinformation around the world and the threat it poses to democracy. We all have a role to play here, so let’s get to work. pic.twitter.com/IO6oi5CdQs

When Barack and I left the White House, we asked you to help us shape the @ObamaFoundation's work. Since then, we’ve launched nine programs and connected countless leaders around the world. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait for what's next. https://t.co/PrGkDTRbP3 pic.twitter.com/gGX9zX8tIf

When you look at the history of big social movements, they’re usually started and sustained by young people who put in the work to make it happen. As we look to COP26, I’m inspired by the young people using their voices in the fight against climate change. https://t.co/IBdciqn8ml

Climate change isn’t a distant environmental issue—it’s already having an immediate impact on our lives, including huge national security implications as more communities come under stress.https://t.co/wLnJgynwCs

We’ve done some important work since the Paris Agreement was signed six year ago, but we’re still nowhere near where we need to be on climate. Watch live from #COP26 in Glasgow as I talk about the steps we can take to combat climate change. https://t.co/fpoGbnNehm

It is not helpful to tell people of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, etc that they should move. First of all, most of you saying this have no space.

Two — there is no where to go. This country is collapsing colonial project. This is it. Where you are is where you fight.

2020 was a year of uncertainty and unrest. But it was also a year where hope led the way, as new leaders stepped in to confront challenges with hard work, creativity, and empathy, and showed us how hope can turn anguish into action.

On the ninth anniversary of DACA, I’m thinking about all the brave DREAMers who have stepped forward to tell their stories. They have fueled a movement that is still working to guarantee the permanent protections they deserve. I will always be inspired by their fight. pic.twitter.com/YrVuuVTrrE

I can’t wait for you all to see We The People! This Higher Ground project is filled with the songs and the heart of so many of our favorite artists—but even more, it’s a rallying cry for a rising generation that’s ready to take on the world. Watch it on @Netflix on July 4! 🇺🇸 https://t.co/c8N7nb01n8

Michelle and I are excited to share our latest show from Higher Ground: We The People. Some of our favorite artists got together with amazing animators to remix civics—and the result is a lot better than what we had in school. Check it out on @Netflix this July 4. pic.twitter.com/PlsSyq5pgk
