TAKE BACK TECH II
JUNE 21-23
CHICAGO 2024
Why now?
This yearโs gathering is coming at a crucial time. Tech is militarizing borders and increasing the power of the police. AI is aiding in the genocide of Palestinians. Globally, half the worldโs population will experience national elections that will be shaped by mis and disinformation. Location data is used to target people who access health services like abortion. The worldโs wealthiest people are tech bros at a time when our communities are struggling to make ends meet. We are at a crossroad, and we need stronger strategies and relationships to reclaim technology for our people.
