At mid-decade, it seemed that the long struggle to achieve the goal of racial integration would soon be achieved. Congress enacted a series of federal civil rights laws that ended de jure racial segregation and promised to achieve the major goals of the “second reconstruction” – the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Yet less than a week after the signing of the Voting Rights Act, a riot broke out in South Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts, following the arrest of a 21-year-old African American driver, Marquette Frye, for suspected drunk driving. Like the Harlem Riots of 1964, which followed the police shooting of 15-year-old Jerome Powell, the Watts Riots differed from many earlier “race riots.” While “race-related collective violence is a recurrent, periodic theme in American history,” riots in the first half of the 20 century “were characterized by violent interracial clashes between blacks and whites, usually initiated by whites” while the disorders of the 1960s “featured clashes between blacks and law enforcement officials” (Lipsky & Olson, 1977, p. 37). Many argued that the riot, now called by some an uprising, reflected frustration at the continuing challenges of police brutality and segregation during a period of superficial progress. Years later, Frye, who had resisted arrest, told a reporter, “All I knew that day is that I was tired of being treated bad by a policeman” (Szymanski, 1990, para. 15). Immediately after the riot, the Institute of Government and Public Affairs at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) initiated the Los Angeles Riot Study (LARS). The study, funded by a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity, was staffed by faculty members from a variety of social science disciplines. Nathan E. Cohen, a national social work leader who had joined the faculty of the UCLA School of Social Welfare in 1964, served as study coordinator. The Institute of Government and Public Affairs issued a preliminary report in 1967; the final report was issued five years after the riot (N. Cohen, 1970), after more than 300 other American cities had experienced serious riots (Lipsky & Olson, 1977, p. 10).","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":"29 1","pages":"345 - 361"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43123747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the use of data to implement systematically biased policy is not new, the contemporary primacy of data across core institutions imposes disproportionate harms on already marginalized communities. Activist-proposed conceptual frameworks informed by the notion of data justice provide a basis to operationalize human rights in an evolving technoculture. This article urges social workers to recognize new data driven forms of inequality across individual, organizational, and community levels of practice, offering concrete examples of data harms and of just data practices that embody transparency, accountability, nondiscrimination, dignity, and participation.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":"29 1","pages":"237 - 256"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42829264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A variety of digital tools (e.g., social media, crowdsourcing, video conferencing) were used to coordinate people/resources, raise funds, create connections, and educate others. Findings encourage digital organizing to meet tangible and intangible needs when formal systems fail, while carefully avoiding reifying inequities based on differential access to technology.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":"29 1","pages":"280 - 298"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46147585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Collectively, they offer a gentle nudge for our profession to take a more proactive role in integrating digital technologies in meaningful ways and advocating for digital justice. The social work profession is at a critical crossroads where we can take a proactive role in influencing the ethical use of digital technologies to benefit social good and advance social change, rather than be reactive to the whims of technology companies and developers that thus far, have dictated the rules of digital engagement and participation.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":"29 1","pages":"199 - 202"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43906805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the growing popularity of digital and social applications, interest has grown in using digital technology to tackle the challenges facing local communities. Nationwide platforms such as the social networking site Nextdoor or the local news site EveryBlock have drawn considerable attention from the mass media and even local governments as platforms to communicate with and engage citizens. Digital technologies have also been utilized to increase civic engagement (Chen et al., 2012), and mobilize people to solve local issues (Farnham et al., 2015). Digital and social technologies can also foster community engagement, including increasing social capital and connections (Hampton & Wellman, 2003; Kavanaugh & Patterson, 2001). However, these positive outcomes have less frequently benefitted communities of color, particularly young people. Neighborhood mobile apps have sometimes caused harm through racial profiling. Residents in marginalized communities are also impacted by the digital divide (Nielson, 2006) and low-income youth face civic opportunity gaps (Conner & Slattery, 2014). The use of digital technology has also risen in social work, including websites, cell phones, and virtual reality programs designed to understand social problems and develop interventions (Chan & Holosko, 2016). The use of digital technology in assessment and intervention in direct social work practice has led to more targeted services, provided an opportunity for immediate feedback, and allowed social workers to serve individuals who were not previously able to access services (Bender et al., 2014; Berzin et al., 2015; Ramsey & Montgomery, 2014). Despite the promise of using digital technology to improve social work practice, there has been less emphasis on designing mobile and online technology for community social work interventions, particularly engaging youth (Chan & Holosko, 2016).

I suggest that the coming together of researchers, professionals, and communities occurs in a partnership space, a space of relationality in Indigenous contexts.
