Have you checked out this collaborative project from us and @CommJusticeExch yet? beyondcourts.org is a jam-packed digital resource hub for people to learn about, interrogate and build the organizing power we need to defund, divest and ultimately dismantle criminal courts!

There is nothing neutral about data, and nothing passive about surveillance. In our new report & website (built by @RADdotCAT) we examine the interlocked machineries of migrant surveillance and describe state & commercial systems of “data criminalization." abolishdatacrim.org

And shout out to Billy Dee who is not on twitter but illustrated the data criminalization machine, the illustrations in the report, and all the database beasts. They are a genius and you should support their work: billydee.net

We loved working with our comrades @RADdotCAT on abolishdatacrim.org - they turned a massive google doc & visions of database monsters into a beautiful, accessible website. If you're looking to translate your work into a web platform, check them out!
We've really enjoyed the past year of translating @crookedflight's brilliant research to the web -- so excited that this resource is finally out in the world at abolishdatacrim.org
