What is #theintersection? A way forward.
A movement; a moment. A chance for us to create a better future. A radical act. A way to tear down the old system and build it back up into something new. Something that doesn’t just serve one of us, but all of us. Together.

The Markup examines how this works, and how federal laws make it easier to get away with: https://t.co/R4XxuOBdHn @lkirchner

While #theintersection examines technology and inequality through the lens of public protest, landlords’ real-life use of screening services widens the gap within the housing system.

@technoshaman We are glad the film resonated with you!

Brilliant experiment in media-enabled, radical social innovation!

But when reality destroyed the bubble and took everything they had, it fell to their daughter to find a way forward. A way towards #theintersection. Find out more about Tammi and the Intersection here: https://t.co/xu8OMwt4MM

Tammi’s parents found comfort in their bubble, only consuming and believing the news that their carefully curated algorithms and technology fed to them.

When the system fails, the power will return to the people.

There are no isolated incidents. Technology and inequality — climate, social and otherwise — have always been intertwined, and true innovation will be needed to solve these crises together. This is the concept at the core of #theintersection.

If we are to survive, change is required. #theintersection imagines one possible future in which technology is repurposed to strengthen our ties and build rather than divide. #Solarpunk is another.

The news told Tammi’s family the storm wasn’t real. They believed it right up until catastrophe washed away their lives. Now a refugee in her own country, Tammi works toward a world where technology can’t corrupt and destroy. In order to do that, she must find #theintersection.

When Jake’s journalistic ambitions stoke the flames of division and conflict, he abandons his dream and searches for a way to bring people together with technology, rather than drive them apart. That decision brings him to #theintersection, where his life’s work truly begins.

[the Intersection @theIntersect1on]

#theintersection is just one of many visions for a better future that emphasizes human connection as a way to achieve true equality. We are not alone in this fight.

In #theintersection, Jake’s dream of being a journalist leads him down a dark path when he uses technology to create multiple versions of the same story in an attempt to cater to everyone’s idea of the truth.

[the Intersection @theIntersect1on]

The results bring him success and comfort in his own bubble, securing his future in a capitalist society. But when his fiction bleeds into reality, he is left with an impossible reckoning with his own abdicated responsibility … and a choice that will define his life.
