* Real time lecture: October 1st 9 - 11 Pacific/12 - 2 Eastern on Zoom https://zoom.us/j/9129428892
 
 
 
==== Overview ====
 
We've focused a lot on the problems of surveillance, but how do we build resilient, informed communities who are able to resist the intrusions of Big Tech, who can use technology to support local needs and build better relationships with their neighbors? This week, we'll hear from Tawana Petty of the Detroit Community Technology Project. DCTP is an organization focused on digital media education and community technology building in Detroit. We'll hear about the work and vision of the DCTP and what librarians can learn from this model.
