designers  engineers  researchers  or artists who want to create more ethical designs  it aims
to help readers understand how race is implicated in technology design. Learning from
historical and contemporary case studies of engineering and architecture projects will help
readers see clearly the power of design decisions to either perpetuate or contest racism.
Chapter exercises will change engineers' mental models to see the bias inherent to existing
technological design. By incorporating the knowledge and insights of community-based experts
into design projects  readers will begin to practice anti-racist leadership and
counter-expertise.
