Lots of dissent from public speakers at #BARTBoard regarding proposals to crack down on fare evasion, add cops, build out surveillance camera system, ban panhandling. One speaker: “do not legislate out of fear of a bad headline.”

One BART Director has suggested face surveillance in the BART transit system. Though not on today’s agenda, 9 Bay Area civil rights & racial justice orgs & the community at large are speaking out: this tech is dangerous, biased & has no place in the BART system. #BARTBoard
