<p>
From everyday apps to complex algorithms, Ruha Benjamin cuts through tech-industry hype to understand how
emerging technologies can reinforce White supremacy and deepen social inequity.
</p>
<p>
Benjamin argues that automation, far from being a sinister story of racist programmers scheming on the dark
web, has the potential to hide, speed up, and deepen discrimination while appearing neutral and even
benevolent when compared to the racism of a previous era. Presenting the concept of the “New Jim Code,” she
shows how a range of discriminatory designs encode inequity by explicitly amplifying racial hierarchies; by
ignoring but thereby replicating social divisions; or by aiming to fix racial bias but ultimately doing
quite the opposite. Moreover, she makes a compelling case for race itself as a kind of technology, designed
to stratify and sanctify social injustice in the architecture of everyday life.
</p>
<p>
This illuminating guide provides conceptual tools for decoding tech promises with sociologically informed
skepticism. In doing so, it challenges us to question not only the technologies we are sold but also the
ones we ourselves manufacture.
