Black Beyond Data Reading Group (Who Owns Black Data?)

In place of our normal reading group, please join us for Who Owns Black Data: Slavery & Data hosted on March 28-29, 2024 in Baltimore, MD by the Black Beyond Data Ecosystem at Johns Hopkins University and Morgan State University. This historic convening will gather a distinguished group of scholars, librarians, activists and archivists to discuss, elucidate, and provide public answers to the question: who owns and controls the Black historical and cultural record?

All events are free and open to the public. Join us! Full schedule of events with registration links for virtual and in-person are available online.

ICYMI: The Black Beyond Data Reading Group hosts free, virtual, monthly meetings focused on exploring ideas around community-based data analytics (CBDA), a collaborative approach to data that involves community members in the collection, management, and analysis of data in their communities. Register today.
