Public Review Coalition
Join the Federal Data Accuracy Coalition
Add your voice, expertise, organization, or community perspective to help strengthen the Federal Data Accuracy proposal.
Core message
Black America is not monolithic. Better data can help public policy see people more clearly, respect different histories, and serve communities with greater accuracy.
This proposal is published for public review and coalition-building. It has not been introduced in Congress and should not be read as endorsed, accepted, or reviewed by any office, agency, organization, political party, or elected official unless expressly stated.

Who this coalition needs
Historians and genealogists
Help ground the language in historical accuracy, lineage research, and practical self-identification standards.
Public-health and education researchers
Identify where better data can improve health, education, maternal outcomes, school equity, and long-term opportunity analysis.
Fair-housing and labor experts
Connect the proposal to housing, lending, workforce, wage, and civil-rights monitoring systems.
Black civic organizations
Help ensure the proposal is community-grounded, inclusive, and not captured by narrow institutional language.
Community and faith leaders
Bring local legitimacy, convening power, and feedback from residents who are often absent from federal data conversations.
Policy and legal reviewers
Stress-test the discussion draft language, privacy guardrails, self-identification rules, and implementation support materials.
How your information helps
How we protect trust
This coalition should help people participate with clarity, consent, and respect. The goal is to bring credible voices together around a serious public idea.
Supporters can share expertise so the coalition can bring the right people into discussion draft review, public-health analysis, education-data review, fair-housing review, and community validation.
Public supporter listings should be opt-in and reviewed before publication. Coalition-building is trust-building; the database should never become a spam list.
