Abstract

Harmful data practices produce and perpetuate structural inequities that are compounded by the intersections of one's gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, ability, and citizenship. This panel mobilizes 'critical refusal' as an organizing principle and lens for examining interlocking struggles across data domains, contexts, practices and cultures within CSCW and social computing research.
