A new J-Source article, written by Amber Bernard and Ryan Running Rabbit, looks at the Surviving Hate project and why collecting data is necessary to shed light on hate crimes in Canada.
From the article:
“Building off of the work of ProPublica’s groundbreaking project, Documenting Hate, Surviving Hate offers a place for people to share their experiences without the bureaucracy or judgment that may discourage some from filing formal reports. It doesn’t aim to replace formal reporting systems; instead, it seeks to create a system where reports can be imbued with crucial human context.”
Both Bernard and Running Rabbit joined Surviving Hate as part of the Journalist for Human Rights Indigenous Reporters Program.
