The NorcalMLK Foundation and the Bar Association of San Francisco have partnered together to present a special program on human and civil rights in the time of technological and juridical uncertainty. Two distinguished thinkers will present their perspectives on human and civil law in this time of technological and juridical uncertainty.
Sylvester A. Johnson is the Chair and Professor of Black Studies at Northwestern University and the co-founder and CEO of the Corporation for Public Interest Technology in Washington DC. Dr. Johnson is a leading technologist and religious scholar, whose current research focuses on a study of human identity in an age of intelligent machines and human-machine symbiosis. He is the author and editor of four books on religion and race, and he is a founding co-editor of the Journal of Africana Religions. Dr. Johnson leads the “Future Humans, Human Futures” project, supported by the Henry Luce Foundation, which engages the current and emerging challenges for ethical governance of technology by working across multiple societal sectors to cultivate socio-technical knowledge and skills.
After the presentations, Dr. Aaron Grizzell, the NorcalMLK Foundation's executive director will moderate a conversation with Dr. Johnson.
