The Future of Democracy: The COVID-19 forecast | Knight Foundation

October 22, 2020 1:00 pm

Amid murky responses to COVID-19 from government and health officials, sociology expert Zeynep Tufekci has become a leading voice in building credible, helpful information around the pandemic — and, in particular, what we can expect as a nation. On Episode 25 of “The Future of Democracy,” we’ll talk with Tufekci, a sociology professor at UNC Chapel Hill. She’ll share the important sociopolitical and privacy implications that have surfaced this year, and what to expect for the future.

The Future of Democracy, formerly called VISION, is a weekly Knight Foundation show about the trends, ideas and disruptions changing the face of our democracy. Hosted by Sam Gill, Knight’s chief program officer, the 30-minute program takes a hard look at the important issues our country is facing today.
