Race After Technology by @ruha9 is really the book of the moment, combining radically important insights technology, racial justice, and surveillance. If you run a tech company, you should be buying this book for employees. If you work in tech you need to read it.

I just finished reading @ruha9's new book, Race After Technology, and immediately had to return it because the US Senate Library has a waiting list for it! I had to wait my turn to check the book out as well. This is a rarity for any particular policy or academic book here.

The CDEI had its first #bookclub meet-up last night. This month we’ve been reading @ruha9 ‘Race after Technology’ - engaging & accessible, we’d thoroughly recommend to those interested in the intersection of race & tech.

This is what some scholars have called zombie predictions where the prediction of the algorithms are systematically overestimating risk…

@UMassWalker @NewJimCode Grateful for this wise community- as a person helping to lead a national #SDOH terminology initiative, the #GravityProject, these are the books I’ve already gleaned as necessary and folded into my library- “Design Justice” on pre-order- again, grateful

Despite being a total pseudoscientific nonsense, the idea of "emotion detection" is fast spreading. This is very bad!

Watch the video of @ruha9 delivering her lecture, "A New Jim Code? Race, Carceral Technoscience, and Liberatory Imagination in Everyday Life" last week as part of the Control Societies speaker series. It was standing room only! @PennSP2 @Penn
