A People's History of Tech
A People's History of Tech (APHOT) reframes dominant technological narratives by documenting how diverse communities have experienced, shaped, and resisted technological change.
Technological dominance represents an existential threat to our democracy, planet and future generations. Our interventions include collecting narratives that share tech’s true impacts, archiving forgotten histories, and communicating a positive future in service to all life. We also provide infrastructure and a participatory governance model to help our members meet their present needs and opportunities.
