Dear Friends,
Please tune-in to No Alibis this Wednesday, November 23, 2022, 9:00-11:00 AM PST.
At 9:30 AM following the news that includes a UAW strike update, Sarah Lamdan will join us to talk about her recent book Data Cartel: the Companies that Control and Monopolize Information. Data Cartels is a timely work with far reaching implications around ethics, privacy, and surveillance. Jacinta Gonzalez from Mijente will join Sarah to talk about their campaign #NoTechforICE, calling attention to data companies selling data to ICE.
Sarah Lamdan is a Professor of Law at CUNY School of Law with a Master's Degree in Legal Information Management. She works on data justice issues and teaches administrative law, open government, data privacy, and legal research and writing courses. She authored the article, Librarianship at the Crossroads of ICE Surveillance, available at, https://www.inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/2019/ice-surveillance/
Jacinta Gonzalez is Field Director for Mijente. She is coming on board as our Field Director and bringing her experience formerly running the Congreso de Jornaleros in New Orleans and most recently working with PODER in México, organizing the Río Sonora River Basin committees against water contamination by the mining industry to the work of the #Not1More campaign and Mijente.
In the second hour, we will read stories and reflections from a selection of Native American and Indigenous authors who encourage us to expand our notions of home, relationships, and the environment.
We are part of everything that is beneath us, above us, and around us. Our past is our present, our present is our future, and our future is seven generations past and present.
