Banking on a Revolution

Why Financial Technology Won't Save a Broken System

Beschreibung

This book is a series of essays, deeply rooted in theory and research, describing how the financial system is designed to advantage white people. While many people believe that technology can be used to extend advantages to Black and Brown people, this book takes a skeptical view of technology and describes how grassroots social movements are changing the financial system.
