Towards Safety for Black People on the Web

6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Auburn Avenue Research Library

Description

A Conversation on the Future of the Black User Experience on Social Media Platforms Archiving the Black Web presents a keynote conversation on the experience of Black people using social media platforms. Can decentralization and care-centered moderation that is customized to address the unique issues Black people face online offer enough protections? What is safety online anyway? And what are the limitations and possibilities of our efforts to protect ourselves in an increasingly toxic social media environment where the ability to control what content we see is replaced by algorithms designed to monetize our attention? This keynote conversation will explore how Black people are navigating the changing social media landscape, new trends and practices for building a safer online experience, and what the future could look like for the Black experience on social media platforms.
