Imagining America: Digital Divestment Roundtable
When: Thursday, July 30, 10am PT / 11am MT / 12pm CT / 1pm ET
Where: Online via zoom
In session 2, our community of practice started to make a personal plan for how we would like to interact with particular platforms, who is part of our communication circle and how we would like to be in touch with different communities, and shared challenges and tips with one another to help us along in our collective journey. This work is ongoing, and IA staff are working on collating these tips and exercises into a practical toolkit so that we can continue to collectively transition into a new relationship with digital technologies, and imagine how we would like to use these tools with informed agency.
In session 3, we will shift from planning work to practical tips! We will work on specific tasks related to data security, surveillance, AI features, and platform migration (for data storage, calendars, emails, etc). As always, there will be time for community sharing. Please bring your devices so we can make this a hands-on workshop, and bring your own tips and best practices for safety/sovereignty when navigating digital spaces and platforms.
