B The Way Forward
By AnitaB.org & Frequency Machine
Tech shapes almost every aspect of our daily lives. And yet the tech we use has been controlled by a select few for far too long. Host Brenda Darden Wilkerson, President and CEO of AnitaB.org, challenges this disparity head-on. Yes, there are problems in tech, but this is a show about solutions. Dive deep, beyond the doom and gloom tech headlines, into deep, thoughtful dialogues with the pioneers and change-makers reshaping the space. Each episode of B The Way Forward is a call to action. Immerse yourself in stories of hope, learn about leaders driving change, and arm yourself with tools to be part of that change.
Let’s reclaim our digital agency, redefine tech, and create a future where those who create tech truly mirror the faces of those who use it.
