Summary

Greater connectivity and superpowered storytelling through digital media systems were supposed to spark a democratic renaissance. Instead, our platforms don’t work for us - we’re the inventory, and our outrage fuels a tech revolution optimized for profit. But we have the power to break free and create a healthy civic life for all Americans.

Michael Slaby identifies four necessary avenues to build a future that serves us all: redesign our platforms; restore journalism, government, and corporations; reclaim the power and diversity of our storytelling; and ultimately redeem ourselves. Optimistic and passionate, For ALL the People breaks down how we got here, and how we can work together toward a better democracy empowered by - rather than exploited by - technology.
