Bias is everywhere you look, if you’re really looking. Search engines? Biased. Social Media? Biased. Online shopping sites? Biased. The next time you shop online, search up an answer, or scroll down social media, question the information you’re being fed. What bias does it come with? Who is it serving? When you really start to look around it can feel overwhelming, so brace yourself, and then ask what you can do to help make the digital world a more equitable place for all.

If you’re lost with where to start try reading Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism by Safiya Umoja Noble – All of it, not just the introduction. It’s an eye opener and an incredibly valuable read.
