Hi, I’m Camden, a rising sophomore at Georgetown, studying Government and Computer Science. This summer I’ll be looking at digital circulations of race and culture. The project will investigate the ways that the power to express is conditionalized, tangled, and performed across communities and identities. From this, I'll work through two main questions: How does surveillance reproduce colonial relationships? What does it mean to be seen?
On a personal level, I’m really excited to work on my own individual research for the first time. Getting to build whole networks on my own in the US and the UK has been and will continue to be a really engaging challenge. I’m grateful for all the support I’ve received so far, and I’m looking forward to meeting new people across the Laidlaw community. Please feel free to reach out and connect!

I’m really looking forward to meeting new people and experiencing new things on this journey!
