Subject: [Noisebridge-announce] Hack the Left: An Anticapitalist Hackathon

Hack the Left is an anticapitalist hackathon, February 5-7 at Noisebridge.

This is an experiment to see what happens when you get a bunch of leftists in a room for a weekend with the intention to advance liberatory and anticapitalist projects using
technology. This includes software projects like Tor and Signal, art projects like the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project and Men in Grey, hardware projects like mesh networks
and signal jammers, and tools for rad organizations like Anti Police-Terrorism Project and Food Not Bombs. It's clear that there's a huge amount of opportunity for
liberatory technology. It's up to us to build it.

We also need people involved with left-aligned organizations, technical or not, to show up and help guide all the technical folks towards doing things that are actually
useful. We want to build with, not for.

More information and the answers to probably all of your questions, please check out the website, hacktheleft.com (redirects to the Noisebridge wiki page).

Cost is a recommended donation of $15. In the unlikely event that this makes any money, it will be donated to Noisebridge.
