Summary:
"Drawing on years of fieldwork in
Washington
: DC's schools, libraries, and startups, [the book] explores how the problem of
poverty
became a problem of technology and the skills to use it, how 'learn to code' became the default response to the broken labor markets of the twenty-first century. 'The Promise of Access' received the McGannon Book Award for the best book published in 2021 concerning media policy, activism, and social justice."--author's website.
