ABSTRACT / Does homophily help or hinder minorities' visibility and position? How do minorities mix with majorities in online and face-to-face networks, and what societal and algorithmic consequences do these mixing patterns have on their visibility? These are the questions that I plan to address in this talk drawn from my recent and ongoing research.
