SAN FRANCISCO—A new photographic and informational exhibit on border surveillance technology has been installed for public viewing at Angel Island State Park. This exhibit aims to educate visitors about the evolving landscape of border security and the technologies employed to monitor and control immigration.
Angel Island has a rich history as an immigration station, and the installation serves as a poignant reminder of the ongoing debates surrounding privacy, surveillance, and human rights. The exhibit features a variety of visual materials that illustrate the tools used in modern border enforcement, including drones, cameras, and biometric systems.
By showcasing these technologies, the exhibit invites discussions about their implications for civil liberties and the impact they have on communities. The initiative underscores the importance of understanding how surveillance affects individuals, especially marginalized groups. The installation is expected to engage visitors in critical conversations about the balance between security and privacy in today’s society.
