Media ownership, surveillance and AI governance measure Black community power
A report or analysis from Insight News examines how media ownership, surveillance practices, and AI governance policies function as measures of political and economic power for Black communities.
Why this matters: Who owns the media, who gets watched, and who shapes AI rules are not abstract policy questions. For Black communities, they have direct consequences. Surveillance systems have a long history of targeting those communities first. AI governance decisions made without diverse input tend to reflect the priorities of whoever is already in the room. Media ownership determines whose stories get told and whose get buried. These three issues together add up to something real: who has power and who is subject to other people's.
