The Armchair Sociologist

07 Social Media - The Robots are Racist Now (Part 3 of 3)


Listen Later

In the thrilling conclusion of our Social Media series, we talk censorship, discrimination, and the father of American sociology, W.E.B. DuBois. Through the power of algorithms, we can finally automate racism.

There will be no episode next week, as I am still working on it. The first two series of episodes were completed as my capstone project at the University of Alabama Birmingham, along with my partner, Rayne, who you’ve heard on all the episodes so far. Due to time constraints, she is unavailable going forward, so I’m working solo on the next episodes! It takes a bit longer to deliver content at this level of research and polish, so I hope it will be worth the wait.
