Gabrielle Rejouis, a Data & Society affiliate, is a senior fellow at the Workers’ Rights Institute at Georgetown Law. She also teaches as an adjunct professor with Georgetown University’s Communication, Culture & Technology program. Previously, she was a Tech Justice at Work legal fellow at United for Respect. At Color of Change, she managed federal anti-racist and technology policy lobbying and co-produced the animated explainer series “Being Black Online.” Gabrielle co-organized “Color of Surveillance: Monitoring Poor and Working People,” a conference at the Center on Privacy and Technology at Georgetown Law. At the Privacy Center, she drafted the Worker Privacy Act, the first model bill calling for a dedicated office to address the impact of surveillance on workers at the Department of Labor. 

Gabrielle’s research and advocacy focuses on technology policy and economic justice using a Black feminist framework. This includes advocating for anti-racist principles in antitrust and tech policy reform, examining how racist exclusions in labor and employment laws impact precarious workers, and campaigning for an end to the surveillance of workers. Her other research interests include cultural and media studies and the role popular education and narratives can play in advancing transformative movements. 

Gabrielle earned her JD from Georgetown University Law Center with a certificate in refugees and humanitarian emergencies. She earned her BA in history from the New Jersey Institute of Technology, where she was an Albert Dorman honors scholar.
