Project Salt Box: Open Data as Community Defense Saturday, February 28th, 7:00 pm Join the researchers behind Project Salt Box at Red Emma’s to explore how grassroots "citizen sleuths" are using open-source intelligence to track Homeland Security’s unprecedented growth under the One Big Beautiful Bill. By compiling often-overlooked public records — from federal procurement databases and land deeds to local plumbing and HVAC permits — Project Salt Box demonstrates how community members can identify new ICE infrastructure before it's fully built. This talk will demystify the process of following the "paper trail" of state power and discuss how we can turn raw data into a collective tool for transparency, accountability, and community defense. #Baltimore #ProjectSaltBox #CommunityDefense
