Hidden Architecture of PatriarchyThe difference between life and death in a car crash could come down to your gender. For decades, safety tests used only male dummies, creating a dangerous blind spot in vehicle design. This practice has led to cars that are significantly less safe for women, even in identical accidents.

This is the story of a deadly data gap.
