CIVIL RIGHTS TABLE

The Civil Rights, Privacy and Technology Table breaks down silos between groups in the civil rights, digital rights, media justice and public interest sectors to advance the digital civil rights movement. Founded in 2011 by the Ford Foundation as a forum for 10 civil rights, media justice and public interest technology organizations, the Table has evolved to include more than 30 organizations collaborating to lead successful national and regional campaigns and set the digital agenda civil rights. The Table leverages relationships among the leading experts in civil rights and technology to address a wide range of technology and privacy concerns, including surveillance of immigrant communities, hate speech and online propaganda, bias in facial recognition technology and online voter suppression.
