Beyond Broligarchy: The Fight for a Better Future
May 8 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Is this the future we dreamed of?
Wasn’t technology supposed to serve the many, not enrich the few? Wasn’t AI supposed to bring about a life of collective prosperity and security? Cyberpunk and sci-fi tales were warnings, not blueprints for the future.
Join UCLA Professor Ramesh Srinivasan and acclaimed science fiction author, activist and journalist Cory Doctorow for a talk and conversation rooted in technology, urgency and possibility.
Or maybe it’s a strategy session on how to build a sustained, collective movement that channels our dissatisfaction into change and actions we can take toward a pro-planet, pro-people future.
