THE INSTITUTE FOR DIGITAL HUMANITY

The IDH is a bi-partisan student-run think tank that advocates for civil rights issues connected to technology. We fight a lot of robots -- and people who act like robots -- to make sure our neighbors and children live in a just, free, and equitable post-digital world.

"TECHNOLOGY IS GOING TO KEEP EXPANDING. SHOULDN'T WE ALL HAVE A SAY IN WHERE IT'S HEADING?"
