Chuck Darwin<p>Nationwide protests against anti-Black racism and police violence have sparked demands and reckonings in several corners of higher education and academe.</p><p>The latest to join the fray is the discipline of <a href="https://c.im/tags/mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mathematics</span></a>. </p><p>Ten mathematicians from eight universities and one company wrote an open letter calling for mathematicians to cease collaborating with police departments. The letter also urges math scholars to publicly audit influential algorithms and to embed learning outcomes related to <a href="https://c.im/tags/ethics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ethics</span></a> in <a href="https://c.im/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>data</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> curriculums.</p><p>"It's a political belief, that collaborating with police in any capacity contributes to white supremacist violence and oppression," said <a href="https://c.im/tags/Tarik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Tarik</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Aougab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Aougab</span></a>, a math professor at Haverford College and one of the letter writers, speaking personally on his motivations. "Really any collaboration between mathematics, which is something that I love and that I find extremely beautiful, and the institution of policing shouldn't happen."</p><p>The letter has 1,500 verified signatures from mathematicians, Aougab said, although that number is not limited to academic mathematicians. The letter has been submitted to and accepted by the Notices of the American Mathematical Society.</p><p>The letter writers take particular aim at "predictive policing," which involves using data and mathematics to predict where crime will happen.</p><p>"Many of our colleagues can and do work with police departments to provide modeling and data work," the letter said, noting that in 2016 the Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (<a href="https://c.im/tags/ICERM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICERM</span></a>) at Brown University held a one-week workshop on <a href="https://c.im/tags/predictive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>predictive</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/policing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policing</span></a>.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/PredPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PredPol</span></a>, a major predictive policing company, says that its technology is being used to protect one out of every 33 people in the United States.</p><p>Opposition to predictive policing is not new.
