DESCRIPTION:On Thursday, BART police will propose a system-wide security dragnet for 
 the Bay Area’s transit system. BART police are asking the board to 
 approve the project in concept and authorize trials at Lake Merritt and 
 Civic Center BART stations.\n\nNo privacy policy. No civil rights impact 
 assessment. No data storage and access rules. No biased and inaccurate 
 facial recognition for BART.1\n\nWe need a strong public showing on 
 Thursday morning to tell BART that this will not stand. If work or other 
 committments keep you from coming to BART's board meeting on Thursday 
 morning you can use this email action to share your thoughts with them 
 before Thursday. 
 \n\nhttps://org.salsalabs.com/o/1734/p/dia/action4/common/public/?action_KEY=23205\n\nBART 
 is planning to use the same platform that was proposed as the “brains” 
 of the Domain Awareness Center (PSIM). The plan calls for 2000 CCTV cameras 
 to be converted to IP-based for geospatial tagging and advanced real-time 
 video analytics, likely facial recognition technologies already proven to 
 be inaccurate and biased. \n\nBART has sat on its hands and delayed the 
 adoption of a surveillance technology ordinance approved by its tech 
 commiitee in 2016. Now BART Police are attempting to rush through an 
 aggressive new surveillance network with only 72 hours notice.\n\nThe Bay 
 Area has rejected wall to wall surveillance every time it has reared its 
 head.\n\nThere are plenty of common sense things BART could do with $15-25 
 million dollars to improve security on the transit system without treating 
 every passenger like a criminal suspect.\n\nThe last thing Nia Wilson would 
 want is her death used to increase the high-tech harassment of Black and 
 Brown people.\n\nBART is a subway, not a perpetual lineup. \n\nWe need you 
 to come speak up. \n\nTweet at hashtag #NODACFORBART\n\nFacebook event.\n
