| + | ==== Overview ==== |
| − | |-
| + | In the last few years, increased attention and scrutiny has been paid to local governments and law enforcement around their use of surveillance technology, thanks to the efforts of movements like Black Lives Matter. What we've learned from this work is that police now have access to an unprecedented amount of new surveillance equipment that is often acquired and used without democratic oversight, and is disproportionately deployed against people of color, immigrants, and political dissidents, often for protected free speech activities. Kade Crockford of the ACLU of Massachusetts will take us through this landscape, detailing how this surveillance technology is funded and used, and how we can create accountability processes to curtail the dystopian aspects of this new tech. |
