Hi Maintainers!

I'm co-organizing a teach-in series with my grad workers union at Boston
University and am excited to share Catherine D'Ignazio's Data Feminism
session with this list. D'Ignazio and Lauren Klein cite The Maintainers in
their book *Data Feminism*, as you may know! (Chapter 7: Show Your Work
<https://data-feminism.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/0vgzaln4#nu8co71q02u>)

Details below and attached. It would be great to see anyone from The
Maintainers community there, or at any other teach-ins.

With appreciation for this list and this community,

Anne Callahan
PhD student, American Studies

“Data Feminism” Catherine D'Ignazio
*Aug 14, 2024 7:00 PM EDT (online on Zoom)*
A talk and discussion with Catherine D'Ignazio <https://kanarinka.com/>
about the power structures that shape data practices. Data feminism asks,
Data science by whom? for whom? with whose interests in mind? and draws on
intersectional feminist thinking to create ethical and equitable data
practices. D'Ignazio is the author of *Counting Feminicide: Data Feminism
in Action* (MIT Press, 2024) and, with Lauren F. Klein, of *Data Feminism*
(MIT Press, 2020).
