This wednesday, join us for this networking event between anti-violence
organizers and tech makers to come up with new ways to use technology to
end violence! Autonets Convergence aims to brings together hackers,
anti-racist coders, gender hackers, gender changers, dancers, movement
makers, poets, performers, media makers, anti-violence, transformative
justice and prison abolitionist activists by giving them a space to share
their knowledge and their skills in order to help stop violence against
queer and trans* people, people of color, disabled people, two-spirit
people, sex workers and women. Engaging in discussion with the
local community members based in Toronto as well as with the community at
UofT about the kinds of violence we face daily, we will collectively work
towards creative community-based responses to end violence, creating
experiences and skills which at the end of the workshop we can take back to
our own communities. The goal is to seed a movement of creative
free/libre/open source technologies in concert with non-digital, community
based solutions, to end gendered, racialized, sexual and ableist violence.
