DeFlock @ Norfolk City Council

Hey all! For the past three months, the DeFlock Norfolk Coalition has been going to the Norfolk City Council to speak out against the Flock cameras in Norfolk, some 200 of which have been installed since Norfolk signed its Flock contract in 2023. This nationwide private surveillance corporation doesn't answer to the people of Norfolk and we are building a pressure campaign to show City Council that we want them gone. On Tuesday, August 11th, at 6pm, the DeFlock coalition will be speaking again at City Council. We ask all Norfolk residents who oppose these cameras, which make us less safe under the Trump administration and are used by ICE in its kidnapping operations, to attend and show support. If you'd like to register to speak alongside us, you can do so by emailing ccouncil@norfolk.gov or calling 757-664-4253 before 3pm on Tuesday with your name, address, and speaking topic. If you don't want to speak, we ask that you come and stand in the audience while our speakers are at the podium! Afterwards you're encouraged to join us to debrief and organize for the coming month. If you miss this event, the next open-comment City Council meeting is on September 8th! Reach out to us for more information. We look forward to seeing you there!
