Description
The concept of "ethiocide" is more than just a term; it's a crisis unfolding in real-time. Paramount's decision to shut down MTV News is a stark reminder of how easily our digital cultural history can vanish. In this episode, we unpack the vulnerabilities of digital preservation and the looming threat of losing vital cultural artifacts. We also scrutinize the role of artificial intelligence, revealing how a lack of diversity in coding can skew representation, especially for marginalized communities. These digital gaps serve as a powerful call to action for greater ownership and inclusivity in tech spaces.
