In a new episode of Media Inside Out airing Wednesday, February 19 at 12:30 and 8:30 p.m., host Sherri Hope Culver addresses how the digital divide affects children, low-income adults and families, the negative effects it can have on our society long-term, and the various steps that can be taken by private and public corporations and the government to try and solve this problem.
Culver invites guests Catherine Schifter, an Associate Professor at Temple’s College of Education; Josh Romalis, Executive Director of LIFT-Philadelphia; and Christopher Rodgers, a library and technology specialist for local middle school Green Street Friends, to discuss the how technological inequality is affecting Philadelphia and the nation.
