No Data, No Change
from The Civic Hacker Podcast Hosted by Lori McNeill, Founder | Civic Hacker Network
Amy Bach founded Measures for Justice in 2011 as a follow-up to her acclaimed book Ordinary Injustice: How America Holds Court. The book won the 2010 Robert F. Kennedy Book Award, and was succeeded by an Op-Ed piece in The New York Times titled Justice by the Numbers. In this episode of the Civic Hacker Podcast, hear more about this organization and their ambitious plans to collect and organize the criminal justice system data from all 3,000 U.S. counties, and make standardized metrics available to any and all users who may wish to access the information.
