DETAILS

S.T.O.P. and the Brooklyn Public Library are inviting a group of youth (ages 16-24) to talk about their experiences and ask questions about police surveillance in NYC. We are doing this as part of a project with an organization called the Center for Urban Pedagogy (CUP) and designer Aishwarya Srivastava. The project is to create an educational print material that explains how youth and young adults in New York can protect themselves and their data from law enforcement’s surveillance of their smartphone apps. To make the project as useful as possible, we need your help to think about what the project should talk about and how. We will meet on August 8th, 6-7:30PM, at the Brooklyn Public Library's Central Library to hear more about your experiences and also to show and get feedback on some early design ideas. CUP is paying everyone who takes part $50 for their time. The conversation will be about 1.5 hours long. We are grateful for your participation and hope you can join us for this conversation!
