Dreaming of Freedom: How We Move Beyond an Expanding Police State 

With “robot dogs” at the border, automated surveillance, and arbitrary decisions controlling probation and parole, a system of policing and punishment seems less concerned with fairness or safety than with social control. What does it all have to do with justice? Join sociologist Ruha Benjamin (author of Imagination: A Manifesto), journalist Ben Austen (Correction: Parole, Prison, and the Possibility of Change), and anthropologist Petra Molnar (The Walls Have Eyes: Surviving Migration in the Age of Artificial Intelligence). Moderated by Vincent Schiraldi, former NYC probation commissioner and author of Mass Supervision: Probation, Parole, and the Illusion of Safety and Freedom.
