The Urban Studies Program presents:

“Surveillance and Civil Liberties in Inner City Neighborhoods”

Moderator: Philippe Bourgois, Anthropology and Public Health, Penn

Jerry Ratcliffe, Criminology, Temple University, and former police surveillance professional
David Rudovsky, Senior Fellow, Penn Law and Philadelphia's leading civil liberties attorney
Alice Goffman, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Fellow in Health Policy Research, University of Michigan

The proliferation of video cameras, stop-and-frisk policies, and other forms of surveillance have raised new questions about urban residents' safety and rights, especially in heavily policed inner city neighborhoods.
