Ali is slowly starting to join the 21st century. We talk about the use of apps from cash apps to rideshare and food delivery. We talk about the effect on labor and on our daily lives. We discuss the reality of data-collection and how we have opted for convenience over any other consideration. Our tech conversation leads us to briefly reflect on the past several years’ popular movements like #MeToo and Black Lives Matter. We talk about the power of hegemonic institutions to co-opt those movements while killing they revolutionary potential. This leads us to discuss Bill Cosby’s release and the failures of the legal system to hold the wealthy accountable. We compare this to the injustice of Britney Spears’ situation.
