Digital Border Technologies and Media

The rapid and expansive adoption of digital policing and border enforcement strategies, often outside of the public eye, make this moment ripe for a critical analysis of the relationship between digital technologies, media, and national borders. The Crossdisciplinary Research Cluster on Digital Border Technologies and Media convenes scholars and students from a variety of disciplines, as well as activists and artists who mobilize digital methods in their opposition to detention, separation, and inequities produced by settler colonial borders. For the 2024-2025 academic year, our programming centers the digital dynamics of the U.S.-Mexico border.
