Digital Patronage
from The Digital Life - Design and Technology Podcast Hosted by GoInvo
On The Digital Life podcast topic this week, we chat about philanthropy and patronage in the digital gilded age. Mark Zuckerberg and his wife recently announced that they were giving 99% of their Facebook stock to charitable causes over the course of their lifetimes and were rewarded by the public and the media with equal parts praise and criticism. With a select few mega donors helping to drive the agenda on everything from education to politics to climate change, is the billionaire philanthropist of today, the new patron of progress, or just another manifestation of elite control? Join us as we discuss all this and more.
