What happens when corporations and CEO's are seen as the experts in any/every realm? Money allows you to make the decisions. Resistance is always possible but the tools limit what that resistance can look like.

What are the skills sets that need to be taught so that people can organize and communicate in any circumstance as the tools change? Thought experiment in class: students master Twitter to promote a cause, then get that tool taken away, and have to find a new tool, learn that tool and use that. What do we need to use to build community with tools as they continually change?

The issue is not having a mechanism to demand accountability. Consumers have a voice but it is limited and doesn't cover everyone. How do we ensure that a full civil society voice is able to demand accountability of corporations, politicians, those in power so that civil society has that power?

The phone as tool wasn't designed for resistance, but this tool when used in a tree formation acted to mobilize hundreds of people fairly quickly for protests, etc. How do we (can we?) now use existing tech tools in new ways to subvert things such as digital redlining, etc.?

We need to distance ourselves from those who weaponize open against marginalized people

Open education relies too much on "Open"
Calling something "open" doesn't align it with social justice
Open doesn't address structural inequality
Who gets to decide what is open?
Whose version of open is the one that gets highlighted?
Can it extricate itself from educational reform?
Does open ed resist the dismantling of our institutions?

Working on ways to keep conversations about redlining and openwashing continuing to happen.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a constant case of calling out the problems, calling for changes in communities, and the problems keep popping out in new spaces, but the calling out keeps happening, and this is resulting in social change.

# data[].attributes.body
Education around these issues is still necessary given Openwashing and corporatization - so we need for transparency around the issues.  If a corporation is doing something it should be transparent as to whether it's for profit or for some other reason.

OER platforms by Amazon and Pearson - worry to what extent we can have these things when they can only be experienced through overwhelming platforms who exist to extract and rob people of privacy

Digital redlining reminds us that voice online matters. It is not optional. Investment in, access to, and inclusion within these spaces matter in real ways. The internet is not optional.

Institutional decisions, pedagogical practices that reinforce racial profiling
Digital divide, doesn't talk about where those decisions come from, have some of the worst broadband and pay the most for it, how did we get there?
Urban and rural areas with almost no access, result of investment decisions.
Important to interrogate why we got there

This is something that we really need to be paying attention to. Who owns our data? How are companies taking our data and using it to sell us stuff? Or worse. How is our data co-opted and used to exploit us, oppress us, create policies that discriminate against us?

digital textbook can make things more accessible, people might do better listening to a reading if they don't have disability
other technology options can improve learning

could be doing a better job at resourcing, not always sure how to do it
