Safiya Umoja Noble Noble argues that the combination of private
interests in promoting certain sites, along with the monopoly
status of a relatively small number of Internet search engines,
leads to a biased set of search algorithms that privilege whiteness
and discriminate against people of color, specifically women of
color- and contributes to our understanding of how racism is
created, maintained, and disseminated in the 21st century.
