DESCRIPTION:Who Gets to Be an American: Race, Fear, and Surveillance in Domestic 
 Policy\n\nWednesday, June 8, 10 AM - 11 AM PT (1 AM – 2 PM ET) 
 \n\nRegister:

 an American doesn’t always mean being treated like one when it comes to 
 the rights and liberties that every citizen is supposed to have, and this 
 is especially the case when it comes to people of color.\n\nSince 9/11, 
 Muslim communities have been unjustly viewed as inherently suspicious and 
 subjected to elevated surveillance. Chinese-American scientists are 
 targeted for investigations and prosecutions as the government becomes more 
 concerned with Chinese influence and espionage. And at the border, 
 militarization and advancing surveillance technology has forced migrants to 
 make ever riskier crossings.\n\nThese surveillance programs and policies 
 contradict the American promise of equality, and they isolate communities 
 while making their members more vulnerable to discrimination. \n\nJoin the 
 Brennan Center for Justice for a conversation that will dive into the 
 impact on communities of color and present an opportunity to learn about 
 efforts to organize and fight back so that everyone is granted the 
 opportunity to feel at home on American soil.\n\n\nSPEAKERS:\n\n--Sahar 
 Aziz: Executive Director of the Center for Security, Race and Rights, 
 \nRutgers Law School\n\n--Vicki B. Gaubeca: Director, Southern Border 
 Communities Coalition\n\n--Ann Chih Lin: Director, Lieberthal-Rogel Center 
 for Chinese Studies, University of Michigan\n\n--Moderator: Faiza Patel: 
 Director, Liberty & National Security Program, Brennan Center\n\n\n
