Yesterday we attended a brilliant workshop ran by Open Rights Group about helping young people know their data rights.

In 2022, the Met admitted the Gangs Matrix was unlawful. Last week, it was scrapped for good.

Now we need justice for the 1000s of lives it damaged.

We have forced the Met to #EraseTheDatabase ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

If we are ever to move from harm to healing, we must put an end to ALL police surveillance tools, and instead invest in community based approaches to violence that centre racial justice and liberation.

APPEAL’s investigation, by ⁦⁦Nisha⁩ ⁦Naima Sakande⁩, reveals that the introduction of majority verdicts in England and Wales was motivated by a racist & classist desire to dilute the influence of “coloured” and “labouring class” jurors theguardian.com/law/2024/jan/2…

Being labelled as a gang member can have life changing consequences⚖️

Black people are 16x more likely to be prosecuted under Joint Enterprise. Racist police databases like the Gangs Matrix play a huge part in this.

This is just one of the reasons why we must #EraseTheDatabase

Even by the Met’s own (questionable) standards, the #GangsMatrix is not fit for its supposed purpose.

Instead, it’s used as a weapon against racialised young people.
