# WHAT'S A CRYPTOPARTY ## ## ## ##
Cryptoparty Harlem:
Sorry no chips, dip, awesome music or drinks. Just food for your mind. Ever wonder how to stay private, safe, & secure in today's digital age? What is a cryptoparty anyway? A CryptoParty is free, public and fun. People bring their computers, mobile devices, and a willingness to learn! In the time of the event, people will learn and teach how to use basic cryptography tools. Cryptoparties (http://cryptoparty.in) are decentralized global events that are organized to answer questions and instruct people on technology & privacy. Cryptoparties are always free to attend, public, commercially and politically non-aligned and absolutely against sexual harassment and discrimination.
There are no dumb questions, you do not need to know anything about this subject, nor do you even need to bring a computer or phone. However that will help you get the most of it.
This event is always open to everyone and free. We spend hours promoting the event in the community each month not just online. We purposely hand our flyers to anyone & everyone. We also do not ever discriminate. All are welcome regardless of gender/gender non-conformity, age, technical knowledge, race, class, privilege,sexual orientation,etc. Harlem is a diverse beautiful melting pot and we want to represent that.
