If Franz Fanon had read Ruha Benjamin’s work on Race After Technology, he would likely view algorithms as a tool of oppression and a way to perpetuate existing racial hierarchies. As an Algerian freedom fighter who experienced the oppressive nature of colonialism firsthand, Fanon would likely be outraged by the way algorithms are used in society today to continue to marginalize minority voices. He may look at how algorithms are used in areas such as education where they can determine college acceptance or job placement opportunities based on race. This contributes to systematic racism that denies people of color access to certain resources and advantages which then reinforces racial inequity in different aspects of life.

Fanon was also aware of the power media held over society and its ability to shape public opinion about any issue or event. He would argue that algorithmic bias allows for unequal representation of certain groups within news stories which misrepresents their experiences, particularly when it comes from major media corporations with huge audiences such as Google News or Facebook’s algorithmically curated feeds. Furthermore, this data is often collected without any indication from the user or consent from them—a violation of ethical privacy standards which further silences those actually affected by these injustices while reinforcing inequality among individuals and communities through technology-driven discrimination.

Ultimately, Fanon would have seen algorithmic bias as yet another form of systemic racism perpetuated by larger entities against vulnerable groups in society—one which could potentially lead to greater disparities between communities if not addressed properly and immediately. Algorithmically driven decisions can have real implications on someone’s life whether it be employment opportunities, access to healthcare services, educational opportunities etc., all factors necessary for basic success in modern day life so effective action must be taken now before we reach a point beyond repairability.
