#33 - Catherine D’Ignazio: True Feminism & Closing the Gender Data Gap
Catherine D’ignazio is an Assistant Professor and Director of the Data + Feminism Lab at the MIT. She is also an artist and software developer who focuses on feminism and data literacy.
Catherine has also co-authored a super interesting and eye-opening book, Data Feminism, about what I call the female data gap.
I found our conversation super inspiring, touching upon subjects of culture, history and religion, digging deep into the roots of gender data and its biases, inaccuracies, and even its non-existence.
