Futurist comedian, activist, and best-selling "How to Be Black" author Baratunde Thurston gives his take how the Tech Industry failed to predict the current administration and what we can do about it now. He'll cover why geeks aren't always the best political analysts as well as offer his opinions on the tech leaders advising Trump. Expect a lively discussion with plenty of audience Q&A.
