SUMMARY:Online-Talk: Breaking the Social Media Prism
DESCRIPTION:The Atlantische Akademie invites you to: \nHow to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing  \nOnline-Talk with Prof. Chris Bail\, Duke University   \nIn an era of increasing social isolation\, platforms like Facebook and Twitter are among the most important tools we have to understand each other. We use social media as a mirror to decipher our place in society but\, as Chris Bail explains\, it functions more like a prism that distorts our identities\, empowers status-seeking extremists\, and renders moderates all but invisible. His research\, laid out in Breaking the Social Media Prism: How to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing challenges common myths about echo chambers\, foreign misinformation campaigns\, and radicalizing algorithms\, revealing that the solution to political tribalism lies deep inside ourselves. \n \nChris Bail is Professor of Sociology\, Public Policy\, and Data Science at Duke University\, where he directs the Polarization Lab. A leader in the emerging field of computational social science\, his research examines fundamental questions of social psychology using social media data\, bots\, and the latest advances in machine learning. Chris is the recipient of Guggenheim and Carnegie Fellowships\, and he has written for the New York Times and Washington Post as well as appearing on NBC Nightly News\, CBS\, CNN\, and the BBC. He regularly consults with corporations\, non-profits\, and governments. He is the author of Breaking the Social Media Prism: How to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing\, which draws on innovative online experiments and in-depth interviews with social media users from across the political spectrum to explain why stepping outside of our echo chambers can make us more polarized\, not less. \nThe event will take place on March 24\,2022 at 6:00 PM (CET)  via ClickMeeting. \nRegister under the following link: https://atlantischeakademie.clickmeeting.com/socialmedia/register \nIn cooperation with:  \nOur network of German-American Institutes and Centers as part of the series „Die Zukunft des transatlantischen (T)Raumes“:\nAmerikahaus NRW\, Amerikazentrum Hamburg\, Carl-Schurz-Haus Freiburg\, DAI Nürnberg\, DAI Saarland\, DAI Sachsen\, DAI Tübingen\,\nDAZ Stuttgart
