About us

The ACLU is an non-profit, non-partisan organization of people who believe in the power of action. We are united by the quest – “We the people dare to create a more perfect union.” Whether in the courts, statehouses, Congress or communities, we fight to defend the rights that the Constitution guarantees to all of us —regardless of who we are, where we come from, whom we love, or what we believe. Together, we take up the toughest civil rights and liberties challenges of our time. We seek to inspire those who want change to become the ones who make change.

    Bias in AI has the power to maintain and exacerbate systemic racism — and the harms of racist and broken technology are far-reaching, with serious impacts on Black and Brown communities. We need to build fair, equitable AI systems that ensure already-marginalized communities aren’t further harmed. Join our Head of Analytics Ranya Ahmed, and colleagues from the National Fair Housing Alliance and The Patrick J. McGovern Foundation for a live conversation today, Tuesday, February 25 at 1 PM EST, on the importance of leveraging existing laws to protect civil liberties and pushing for new laws that respond to the unique challenges of an AI-enabled world.

    Artificial intelligence is driving a new era of civil rights advocacy. Grounded in the victories of civil rights champions – both past and present –  the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the National Fair Housing Alliance (NFHA) are leveraging existing laws to protect civil liberties while pushing for new laws that respond to the unique challenges of an AI-enabled world. The two share a common goal: to fight the harms of AI and unregulated algorithmic decision-making in housing, hiring, healthcare, and beyond, while creating new pathways for AI to uncover injustice and expand opportunity for marginalized communities across the nation. Please join us on Tuesday, February 25th at 1 PM EST for a special Black History Month conversation between our VP of Strategy and Innovation, Nick Cain, the Chief AI Officer at NFHA, Michael Akinwumi, and the Head of Analytics at the ACLU, Ranya Ahmed. They will discuss the Black leaders who inspire their ongoing fight for civil rights, how AI is impacting civil liberties today, the digital tools that can help, and the shared road ahead for all those working to uphold civil and human rights in the modern world.
