Against Surveillance & Spectacle: Building Global Resistance to Tech-Mediated Oppression
Open to Everyone
What does it mean to be in community? This panel brings together activists, scholars, and writers to explore connections between critical social issues—health justice, discrimination, technofascism, and surveillance—and the possibilities of grassroots response. Panelists will discuss tensions between collectivizing and collaborating: How do we negotiate care when our access to care hinges on being identified and enumerated by the state? What tactics for resistance might we use in digital communities that are subject to increased surveillance? How can we be there for and with each other?
All are welcome, and we strongly encourage undergraduate and graduate students to attend. Refreshments will be provided to the first 100 in-person attendees.
