The Technology and Structural Inequality Series: Policing and Technology

The Technology and Structural Inequality speaker series will focus on the impact of technology on marginalized communities. The series will bring together leading academics and activists whose work is influencing how we think about and how we fight against the harms that technology is causing. The speakers will examine how technology is being used to increase the surveillance and policing of marginalized communities and how many of these technologies are inherently biased and discriminatory.

Please join us for a roundtable discussion on policing and technology on March 17, 2021 at 12 p.m. This discussion will feature:

Samuel Sinyangwe, Co-founder of Campaign Zero
Cynthia Khoo, lawyer and Research Fellow at the Citizen Lab, Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy, University of Toronto
Cierra Robson, Doctoral Student in Sociology & Social Policy, Harvard University
Moderated by Nicole Gonzalez Van Cleve, Associate Professor of Sociology, Brown University
