D4BL III: Utopia

Closing Plenary Title: Utopia

Location: Auditorium

Description: Everything begins with imagination. Every system, every political force, every place. What we believe in with our minds, we create with our bodies. Against all circumstances and with all hope, we have collectively been able to cast visions for the future and maps to exist and thrive in the most hostile conditions. For the closing discussion of the third Data for Black Lives Conference, we consider the role of imagination, world-building, and shared notions of Utopia in the transformation of society and the development of liberatory technologies. What is possible when we imagine together?

Moderator: Ruha Benjamin Panelists: Dejha Carrington, Nadege Green, Amara Enyia, Njari Anderson
