Join us for a presentation by Dr. Anita Say Chan about her new book, Predatory Data: Eugenics in Big Tech and Our Fight for an Independent Future. Techno-surveillance, algorithmic control, and data-driven discrimination have become routine features of our social landscape. But the Age of Big Data has important precedents in earlier eugenicist and anti-immigrant movements, with lasting consequences for how data is collected and used today. Chan analyzes how contemporary Big Tech is built on data that exploits women and immigrants and reinforces social inequalities. At the same time, Chan looks to the past for previous models of feminist resistance to institutional research and data practices, which continue to inspire today’s data-justice activists.

In the wake of the Holocaust, dozens of survivors journeyed to Minnesota to establish new lives for themselves. While they couldn’t escape their pasts, survivors in Minnesota incorporated themselves into communities across the state in meaningful and profound ways. Join us on March 18 as we celebrate this story of resilience in the aftermath of the Shoah and a conversation about how we can continue documenting this story.
