PRA launched it's newest webinar series Subverting State Violence last week with a roundtable conversation of experts and movement strategists on racism, surveillance, and state violence enacted on Muslims in the 20 years since 9/11.
Anti-Muslim racism and policing has been a facet of U.S. White supremacy since the dawn of the Atlantic slave trade. In the two decades following 9/11, anti-Muslim racism and state violence enacted on Muslims has been a core component of the U.S. security state and altered the very nature of surveillance and policing at home and abroad. And through it all, Big Tech has capitalized on war, incarceration, and violence enacted on Black and Brown bodies to amass power and substantial profit.
