Join Beyond Voting for a live conversation exposing how AI fuels authoritarianism in education—erasing marginalized scholarship, surveilling students, and exploiting hidden labor. We’ll examine threats to academic freedom, student privacy, and the educator workforce, and highlight how educators and students—especially those from marginalized communities—can fight for equity, protect dissent, and defend truth in learning and research.
