How can we remake the world with data? Data Feminism in Humanitarian Contexts

Meet the Author! In this episode, we speak with one of the authors of Data Feminism, Professor Catherine D'Ignazio, Director of the Data + Feminism lab at MIT. We talk about the difficulty of "converting life experience into data," about putting the humanity and emotion back into data, and "how we can use data to remake the world."
