Episode Features New School Professor Maya Wiley 


WASHINGTON, October 10th, 2018:

Today, Commissioner Rosenworcel released the second episode of her podcast, Broadband Conversations, featuring her guest, New School Professor Maya Wiley. Most recently, Wiley was named to Apolitical’s World’s Top 100 most influential people in digital government. Together, Professor Wiley and Commissioner Rosenworcel have worked together on a variety of issues—from sharing the Teen Vogue stage to discuss net neutrality to closing the Homework Gap, so that more kids can head online to do their homework.

“On today’s episode, you’ll hear Maya Wiley and I discuss the challenges of connectivity in both rural and urban communities, the importance of broadband access for individual and community success, and how we need to integrate technology into all of our public policy decisions. It was a treat to get Maya’s take on all of this and hear her thoughts on the future of digital life.”
