- _{Humaniki is a project producing an open data set about the gender, date of birth, place of birth, and language of content about humans in all Wikimedia projects, typically Wikipedia biography articles. Our data set comes from Wikidata, the database that feeds Wikipedia, and is updated daily. This site shows a few demonstrations of what can be done with the open API we’ve built to serve that information. Humaniki is a merger of two previous data diversity tools, Wikidata Human Gender Indicators a.k.a WHGI and Denelezh, created by Maximillian Klein and Envel Le Hir respectively.}

Writing about enslaved people and enslavers

1865 Alexandria, VA, at Convention of the Colored People of Virginia delegated decided to replace the word ‘masters’ with ‘former oppressors’

http://coloredconventions.org/items/show/272

“Wm. E. Walker, of Petersburg, desired that there should be a correction made where the expression in the address read–“our former masters.” He moved that the word “masters” be stricken out and the words “our former oppressors” be substituted therefor. The amendment was adopted.”

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A4TEdDgYslX-hlKezLodMIM71My3KTN0zxRv0IQTOQs/edit

NB: “This document uses “community-sourced” instead of “crowdsourced” to acknowledge the ways in which the connotation of “crowd” has been historically racialized, as P. Gabrielle Foreman points out. The term is also more accurate; an online community contributed to this document and its multiple intervention.
