Technology, Culture, and the Reproduction of Inequality

Speaker

Tressie McMillan Cottom, Ph.D.

For trenchant cultural critic and leading sociologist Tressie McMillan Cottom, the most pressing conversation about the ever-evolving role of technology in our culture is how people use it, how it shapes our lives, and how it inevitably reproduces inequality - from changing access to higher education to making the labor market more unequal. In this potent conversation, Dr. Cottom untangles the threads, offering personal and empirical insights that shift our thinking and spark innovation. Registration is limited to 200. https://duke.is/McMillan-Cottom Registration is open for our entire Identity and Computing Lecture series: https://identityincs.org/events/
