[isoc-ny] WEBCAST TODAY: Civil Liberties In the United States

[ISOC-NY announcements]

Glad to see OpenITP back in action after missing a couple of months. Human
& civil rights are an increasing concern in global Internet fora. Tonight
we examine our own backyard.

Today *Monday April 20 2015* at *6pm*, the *OpenITP Techno-Activism Third
Monday <http://hacktivism.eventbrite.com/>*‘s forum *Civil Liberties In the
United States
<http://www.eventbrite.com/e/civil-liberties-in-the-united-states-tickets-16357125603>*
tackles
the nexus between tech and the growing struggle for civil rights in the
United States. From political efforts to outlaw government surveillance, to
active citizen-surveillance of repressive actors, to viral exposés of
corruption, tech and the Internet – and the increased transparency they
bring – have changed the game. Leading activists will discuss the state of
play. Speakers: *Naomi Wolf*, Author; *Shahid Buttar*, Director of Bill of
Rights Defense Committee; *Mike German*, fellow with the Brennan Center for
Justice. The event will be webcast live via the* Internet Society
Livestream Channel
