“Just Google It”: Algorithms of Oppression

"Just Google It": Algorithms of Oppression

Safiya U. Noble

In this presentation, Dr. Sayifa U. Noble discusses her research into Google, a technology commonly thought of as a public resource free from commercial interest, and how it mediates public access to information in biased ways and permits problematic racial and gender misrepresentations. This talk was sponsored by the Douglas College Faculty Professional Development Committee at the University of British Columbia and hosted on Youtube.
