Headed to Las Vegas for @Netroots_Nation (#NN10)
Thanks to a scholarship from Democracy for America and America’s Voice, I’m headed to Las Vegas for Netroots Nation, the yearly gathering of American progressive bloggers and online activists.
I helped organize and am moderating two panels:
- Building a National Broadband Plan: How Activists in California are Bridging the Digital Divide for Racial Justice (Facebook listing)
- Crimmigration Under Obama: Pushing Back Against the “Enforcement-only” Immigration Regime (Facebook listing)
If you’re not able to attend, you can listen in with Twitter: search for #NN10. If you add #Broadband for my first panel and #StopICE for the 2nd, you’ll be able to follow live tweet notes.
Along with other immigrant rights folks, I’m also planning to raise concerns about immigration enforcement throughout the conference and we’re planning an action related to SB1070 in Arizona.
I’m looking forward to the get-together even though temps are going to be above 100 degrees this week in Vegas. I’ve heard the buffet at the Rio (where we’re staying) is the best in town…
