The Case for Hope in Dystopian Times
Albert Fox Cahn, Founder and Executive Director, Surveillance Technology Oversight Project
Join us for a Privacy@Michigan event with Albert Fox Cahn. In this session, we won’t just examine the ways that novel technologies are driving inequality, eroding autonomy, and undermining the rule of law; we’ll also look at the glimmers of hope piercing the darkness of this moment. Albert will highlight litigation, legislation, and grassroots organizing campaigns that are pushing back every day on the growth of Orwellian technologies. See how a new generation of dystopian storytellers are highlighting the once-invisible harms of government surveillance. Learn how groups defending undocumented immigrants, abortion care, and the bedrock principles of the rule of law are fighting and winning in local communities across the United States. And see the strategies that can be deployed in your local communities in the months and years ahead.
This event will take place on March 17 from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the Vandenberg Room on the 2nd floor of the Michigan League. If you are unable to attend, the event will be livestreamed.
