When we fight we win: Technology and liberation in Trump’s America
Kade Crockford is the Director of the Technology for Liberty Program at the ACLU of Massachusetts. Kade works to protect and expand core First and Fourth Amendment rights and civil liberties in the digital 21st century, focusing on how systems of surveillance control and impact not just society in general but also their primary targets—people of color, Muslims, immigrants, and dissidents.
The Technology for Liberty Program aims to use our unprecedented access to information and communication to protect us, from dystopian monitoring and centralized control, and enrich open society and individual rights by implementing basic reforms to ensure our new tools do not create inescapable digital cages limiting what we see, hear, think, and do. Towards that end, Kade researches, strategizes, writes, lobbies, and educates the public on issues ranging from the wars on drugs and terror to warrantless electronic surveillance.
