SUMMARY:Reimagine the Internet | Knight First Amendment Institute
DESCRIPTION:Reimagine the Internet is a virtual conference co-hosted by the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University and the soon-to-be-launched Institute for Digital Public Infrastructure at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. In six sessions over five days\, there will be more than a dozen speakers whose work hints at what the internet could become over the next decade. \nAs the internet has become an inescapable part of our commercial\, social\, and civic lives\, the flaws and harms of the contemporary internet have become increasingly apparent. Despite rhetoric of decentralization\, monopolies and points of control have arisen online\, and powerful corporations have largely unregulated power over vast swaths of speech and commerce. The spaces these corporations have built may be having significant negative effects on our democracies\, leading towards political polarization\, the spread of mis/disinformation\, and the growth of politically influential conspiracy theories. \nSource: Reimagine the Internet: A virtual conference exploring what the internet could become over the next decade | Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University

SUMMARY:2021 Tech and Racial Equity Conference: Anti-Racist Technologies for a Just Future | Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity
