Ruha Benjamin examines how emerging technologies and automated systems often reinforce systemic racial hierarchies under the guise of neutrality. Through the framework of the New Jim Code, the author demonstrates how discriminatory design choices in software and algorithms perpetuate social inequity, urging readers to consider the sociopolitical architecture embedded within our digital tools.
