Policing by Air(with Andrea Miller)
/Andrea Miller, soon to be a faculty member of Florida Atlantic University this fall, joins the WBI show to discuss her research interests including critical military and police studies, racialization, drone warfare and preemption, cybersecurity and algorithmic governance, ecosystem ecology, and the politics of extraction and infrastructure.
How do some digital technologies that are operationalized in the war on terror really emerge through circuits and histories of racialized policing? How can we understand drones as complex infrastructures and trace them back through the use of air power by military and local police departments? Is the police response to protests representative of a strategy and tactics or is the state being reactionary—responding in full force to threats to its consolidation of power?
Hosts: J. Khadijah Abdurahman, Stanley Muñoz and Ilan Mandel
Music: Drew Lewis
