Spilling the tea and stilling an ocean: A critical tech workshop series

Poster made by current liberatory tech scholar Clin Lai

On March 24th (Friday), we will be hosting a public lecture event on the campus of Penn State, University Park, to help facilitate community and offer the transdisciplinary perspectives needed for this work. The event and lectures will span the entire day, with a short introduction starting at 8:45am and lectures and discussions running from 9am to 4:30pm. For this public lecture event hosted at Penn State, we are excited to have four speakers who all will bring a different perspective as we work to create this community and space: Khadijah Abdurahman (Logics Magazine/Columbia University), Philip Asare (University of Toronto), Kadija Ferryman (Johns Hopkins University), and Romi Morrison (University of Southern California).
