DIGNITY IN A DIGITAL AGE
Making Tech Work for All of Us
Congressman Ro Khanna of Silicon Valley offers a revolutionary roadmap to facing America's digital divide.
In the digital age, unequal access to technology is one of the most pressing issues facing society. There is an economic gulf between those who have struck gold in the tech industry and those left behind by the digital revolution; a geographic divide between those in the coastal tech industry and those in the heartland whose jobs have been automated; and existing inequalities in technological access - students without computers, rural workers with spotty WiFi, and plenty of workers without the luxury to work from home.
Dignity in the Digital Age tackles these challenges head-on and imagines how the digital economy can create opportunities for people without uprooting them. Instead of being subject to tech's reshaping of our economy, Representative Khanna argues that we must channel those powerful forces toward creating a more healthy, equal, and democratic society.
Ro Khanna represents Silicon Valley in Congress. He has taught economics at Stanford, served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Commerce in the Obama Administration, and represented tech companies and startups in private practice. He is the author of Dignity in a Digital Age: Making Tech Work for All of Us. He enjoys spending time with his wife and two children in Washington, DC, and Fremont, California.
