Race After Technology

In this thought-provoking audiobook, Ruha Benjamin explores how emerging technologies can perpetuate white supremacy and social inequity, rather than merely serving as tools of progress. She introduces the concept of the "New Jim Code," illustrating how various technologies may amplify racial hierarchies or replicate social divisions under the guise of neutrality. By positioning race as a form of technology itself, Benjamin urges listeners to critically evaluate the promises of the tech industry and the societal roles these innovations play. This insightful guide encourages a deeper understanding of the relationship between technology and social injustice.
