What if everything you thought you knew about technology was wrong?

In this debut episode, Attorney Danielle A. Davis introduces The Miseducation of Technology Podcast by unpacking how digital tools reflect the same systemic biases that have shaped society for generations. She explores how AI, social media, and internet infrastructure aren’t just flawed—they’re built on historical inequities that continue to shape opportunity, visibility, and access.

Guided by Hosea 4:6 —"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge"—Danielle reveals how biased algorithms, facial recognition failures, and surveillance-driven platforms reinforce existing disparities, particularly for Black communities. She draws from Carter G. Woodson’sThe Mis-Education of the Negro and Lauryn Hill’sThe Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, connecting exclusion from education and knowledge in the past to today’s digital world, where flawed data and human biases are embedded in the technology we rely on daily.

This episode challenges the myth of tech neutrality, exposing how these systems don’t just mirror society—they actively shape it. But it’s not just about critique—Danielle outlines what’s ahead for the podcast, from unpacking social media regulation and algorithmic bias to practical strategies for making technology work for us—not against us.
