Freedom in Motion: The Future of Immigration, AI, and Universal Basic Income

Freedom in Motion: The Future of Immigration, AI, and Universal Basic Income 

Presented By: The Tulane Journal of Policy and Political Economy

When: Wednesday, November 12th, 6 pm - 8 pm in Joseph Jones Hall 102

In the face of ongoing ICE immigration raids throughout the nation, rapid AI advancement, and job displacement, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make a change in democracy. What effects are these having on individuals’ freedoms in our current political climate, but most importantly, how is this affecting you? 

The Journal will host “Freedom in Motion: The Future of Immigration, AI, and Universal Basic Income” with the non-partisan Equal Freedom Institute. The event will feature a thought-provoking discussion on immigration, artificial intelligence, and guaranteed income with an esteemed panel of speakers as we explore pressing and interconnected policy challenges of our time. As global migration redefines nations and technological advancement accelerates, we face a critical era in our social and economic future. The event will bring together leading advocates to examine how these three forces—often discussed in isolation—are deeply intertwined. 

Why This Matters: The Equal Freedom Institute believes that individual liberty and equality are not at odds. Our speakers will move beyond conventional policy debates to reveal how immigration, AI, and basic income are shaping our collective future and how we can act to create a society where freedom and dignity are a reality for everyone. This event is highly encouraged for students, faculty, policymakers, professionals, social justice advocates, and anyone invested in shaping and redefining our future.
