Join grantee Lauren Markham and professor Sissel McCarthy, director of Hunter College's journalism program, for a conversation exploring the booming business of AI technologies used in border enforcement. Markham investigates the far-reaching consequences of these technologies on human rights, security, and privacy—both at the border and beyond.
A reception will follow the talk. RSVP is required.
Markham will visit classrooms and council student news services during her day on campus at Hunter College.
Markham is a writer based in California covering migration, borders, and human rights. Her work has appeared in outlets such as Guernica, Harper's, The New York Times Magazine, The Guardian, The New York Review of Books, The Atlantic, and VQR, where she is a contributing editor.
