dbo:abstract
  • Tawana Petty is an American author, poet, social justice organizer, and youth advocate who works to counter systemic racism. She is the National Organizing Director for Data for Black Lives, a practitioner fellow at the Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society (PACS), member of the Detroit Digital Justice Coalition, and founder of Petty Propolis. In light of police brutality against black individuals, Petty and other researchers like Deborah Raji and Ruha Benjamin are working towards putting an end to the use of surveillance technologies like facial recognition in policing. The failure of these technologies to correctly identify darker-skinned individuals raises the concern that these algorithms are biased against Black individuals. (en)
