image What's Predictive Policing? 120_santa_cruz_ca_predictive-policing.jpg original image ( 500x313) - by PrivacySOS
Predictive policing, with roots in business analytics, relies on using advanced technological tools and data analysis to take proactive measures to “pre-empt” crime. Regarded as a refinement of “intelligence-led policing” - which came to the US from the UK where it has led police to focus on research-based approaches rather than responding to service calls - predictive policing appears to take another large step away from community policing and accountability.

Programs that address racial discrimination by having a race neutral program are shams. In essence, race neutral means “white men companies only”. It doesn’t work and their numbers show it. In fact, the whole state of California is 54% ethnic minority but their procurement programs are virtually void of any acceptable measurement of Blacks, Hispanics, Asians and Native Americans.

Assata Shakur was forced to flee the United States as a target of U.S. racist oppression, orchestrated by the FBI in the 1960’s and 70’s. At that time the U.S. government liquidated the Black Panther Party through the murders of 39 members, including the police shooting of Fred Hampton in his sleep, and through political frame-ups such as that of Geronimo (Ji Jagga) Pratt who was finally exonerated (i.e. found innocent) after 30 years in prison. Other framed Black Panthers still sit in pr...

In the Holy Bible is a message within the Parable of the Vineyard, Timothy Pigford and many, many, many will find comfort in the scriptures.

Slavery in California is remembered at the foot of J Street, Old Sacramento Embarcadero, Monday, March 25, 2013. In Sacramento, enslaved human beings "property" as legally defined in the US Constitution and later shared in the Dred Scott Supreme Court decision were auctioned. "Mining for Freedom" is the tip of a huge iceberg yet officially recognized or documented. It may be time for the California State Legislature to open the offical archives and join the United Nations, International Da...

"Black Agriculture elders were focused on crumbs for the rich man table..." Today, Black Agriculture producers remain the canary in the mine shaft, covered in soot and lungs filled with ashe. US Ag Public Policy mandates the ongoing destruction of Black Agriculture Producers, a product now valued for global...
