Microsoft: Race and Technology: A Research Lecture Series

Incredible! Horrible! 

Primitive tribalism at Microsoft! Pure propaganda and demagoguery! Indoctrination!

Joseph Goebbels is smiling!

Look at the Speaker Lineup below. So many PhDs without a brain!

"Race and technology are closely intertwined, continuously influencing and reshaping one another. While algorithmic bias has received increased attention in recent years, it is only one of the many ways that technology and race intersect in computer science, public health, digital media, gaming, surveillance, and other domains. To build inclusive technologies that empower us all, we must understand how technologies and race construct one another and with what consequences."
