Activism and the Intersectional Internet: Power and Resistance

May 17, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

“The GC Digital Fellows welcome you to a half-day symposium on digital activism that brings together designers, software developers, community organizers and scholars to discuss the possibilities and limitations of digital activism — past and present — and its relationship to offline grassroots efforts. From social media networks to e-mail to websites, the Internet and digital technologies are deployed both as a tool to organize and amplify activists’ resistance efforts, as well as a site of state and corporate control and surveillance.”

Complete agenda on their site.
