<p><strong>With a focus on tech and racial justice, we’re holding the popular Citizen App accountable for spreading fear and fueling racist policing.</strong></p>

<p>To mark the one-year anniversary of the police killing of George Floyd, Kairos brought together a panel of experts from Data for Black Lives, the ACLU, ACRE, and Fight for the Future to talk about the relationship between technology and policing. Attended by journalists, racial justice activists, and tech accountability allies, we facilitated a much-needed conversation on the growing role that tech plays in biased and racist policing.</p>
