Data Empowers the Voiceless(Dalia Mogahed & Kat Coplen)

In this episode of Open Gov Stories, Dalia Mogahed tells her colleague and mentee, Katherine “Kat’ Coplen, about being attacked for her political opinions, her Muslim-American identity, and the origin of the Arab Spring in Egypt. She emphasizes how the data at the Gallup Center for Muslim Studies helped minority communities finally speak for themselves, and how data can aid struggles for social justice in safeguarding the truth and making possible the promise of American pluralism.
