Join us on Wednesday, September 27, 7pm, to discuss Xiaowei Wang's 2020 book Blockchain Chicken Farm and Other Stories of Tech in China's Countryside. We will have an optional dinner together after the discussion.

From the publisher's description

"In Blockchain Chicken Farm, the technologist and writer Xiaowei Wang explores the political and social entanglements of technology in rural China. Their discoveries force them to challenge the standard idea that rural culture and people are backward, conservative, and intolerant. Instead, they find that rural China has not only adapted to rapid globalization but has actually innovated the technology we all use today."
