Bits, Bots, & Our Biome: Technology and Tech Power
Technology shapes how we live and how we understand ourselves as humans, but who is holding the reins? Some leading tech-savvy activists wrestle with how technology and the tech sector are radically re-shaping the distribution of power and life on our planet. They’ll explore strategies and structural and cultural interventions we can use to try to leverage and hold accountable the power of technology, so it can actually serve the common good. Hosted by Lindley Mease co-founder/Co-Director of Blue Heart, which organizes tech millennial donors to give to frontline organizations. With:  Malkia A. Cyril. founder/Executive Director of the Center for Media Justice, co-founder, Media Action Grassroots Network; Gopal Dayaneni, longtime activist, currently on the boards of the ETC Group, The Ruckus Society and the Center for Story-based Strategy.
