    The Call For Papers for our BIC Village at Defcon 29 is OPEN.
    The submission link is here.

    The Blacks In Cybersecurity (BIC) Village seeks to bring culturally diverse perspectives to the holistic Cybersecurity community; by way of a series of talks and a capture the flag event.

    In providing these activities, we believe that we can normalize the discussion of deficiency and prejudices in Cybersecurity literacy, education and development that ultimately impact the progress and development of the field.

    Our village programming is also designed to highlight Black experiences, innovations in the field, Black culture and Black history which is designed to encourage more diverse hobbyists and professionals to engage and contribute to this conference and the greater Cybersecurity and Hacker/Maker communities.

                  Our inaugural badge will present the names of the men and women of the Black Community affected by police violence and social injustice. Each badge will have the standard name format ( First - Last) and scroll across the screen. A new name will be added as the badge comes near other badges. The game embedded into the badge is to collect all the names; there are 4 special names that are on 4 different badges, so the goal is to be within 3ft and meet other wearers of the BIC Badge, you will know that you have all the names because the names will stop changing. The badge is white in honor of the traditional color of mourning in the Black Communities of the deep south. This badge is a digital memorial of those lost and we honor and preserve their memory with our village badge. #BADGELIFE
