If you are looking for people to talk about data analytics with, accountability measures, and public data as an advocacy tool, I'm looking for partners - fellow movement scientists. I'm all 👂 #Data4BlackLives

To demonstrate the possibility of #inclusive public #analytics #platform, @jknowles created fact sheets on America’s 100 largest #police departments. Each sheet relies on a few key pieces of #data from the #FBI’s Uniform #Crime Report and the US #Census bit.ly/2D41O61

The city reports use 2016 data from the FBI's UCR. They combine that with 2015 American Community Survey and make adjustments for small denominators. But the power comes from comparison and contextualizing arrest rates. Learn more here --> buff.ly/2Fl0JZS #Data4BlackLives

Racial inequities in police arrest patterns come up across the country and the scale can be surprising. I've built a demonstration of the data we can use to measure and compare them nationwide #Data4BlackLives --> buff.ly/2Fl0JZS #Data4BlackLives

The lack of publicly available, contextualized information on your #local #police results in a paradox of #democratic accountability. But @jknowles of @civilytics is working to fix that. Read more about his work here: bit.ly/2D41O61

Government Analytics Platform attempting to crowdfun via crypto's @RootProjectCo ; actually looks pretty interesting. I can't even find out how many police officers my town has, let alone detailed statistics on performance of local depts. That needs fixed medium.com/rootproject/bu…

How many police officers does your town have? This isn’t pub trivia so go ahead and Google it, I’ll wait. Any luck? If you live in one of the largest cities in the... medium.com/rootproject/bu…

This is imperative: "Accountability can never be a neutral act. All segments of a community must have tools to create performance metrics so that they can dictate the metrics that reflect their values." --> This will be my focus in 2019, building partnerships, working inclusively

A big positive for me in 2018 was starting my partnership with @RootProjectCo. They've given me so much support over the past few months both helping me refine my outreach strategy, and giving feedback and encouragement in my development work. Looking forward to Q1 2019 together

Here's a trailer for my pitch video (coming soon) for why we need greater police #transparency and #data driven analytics to #reform our criminal #justice system and how I'm working to build it.

During the pre-launch of the @civilytics campaign, we're putting together lists for interest-group and community #advocate outreach in the 150 largest metro areas in the US for which @jknowles created city-specific fact sheets. Who do you think should be on our list?
