By the time the next SXSW rolls around, we’ll be over a year into the dangerous impact of this administration on human rights in the USA, and growing authoritarianism around the world. Our meet up will explore what we can learn from each other about how citizen journalism and civic witnessing using our smartphones can best challenge injustice, hate, dangerous populism and authoritarianism, in the US and internationally. 

Help us get the word out for collaborators by sharing! Voting closes Friday, August 25 (11:59 PM CT).
