Surveillance and the City:
Balancing Public Safety and the First Amendment
Do surveillance cameras on the street really combat crime? What happens to the pictures they take of us? Why are plain clothes police mingling with the crowds at political gatherings? Are these kinds of surveillance legal? Where should we draw the line?
Speakers:
Donna Lieberman, Executive Director, NYCLU
Heather MacDonald, John M. Olin Fellow, Manhattan Institute
Norman Siegel, Civil Rights Lawyer
