Note: This work of creative scholarship is rooted in collaboration between three female artist-scholars: Carly Bates, Raji Ganesan, and Allyson Yoder. Working from a common intersectional, feminist framework, we served as artistic co-directors of each other’s solo pieces and co-producers of Negotiations, in which we share these pieces in relationship to each other. Thus, Negotiations is not a showcase of three individual works, but rather a conversation among three voices. As collaborators, we have been uncompromising in the pursuit of our own unique inquiries and voices, and each of our works of creative scholarship stand alone. However, we believe that all of the parts are best understood in relationship to each other, and to the whole. For this reason, we have chosen to cross-reference our thesis documents.

Social injustice issues are a familiar, yet very arduous topic to define. This is because they are difficult to predict and tough to understand. Injustice issues negatively affect communities because they directly violate human rights and they span a wide range of areas. For instance, injustice issues can relate to unfair labor practices, racism, gender bias, politics etc. This leaves numerous individuals wondering how they can make sense of social injustice issues and perhaps take efforts to stop them from occurring in the future. In an attempt to understand the rather complicated nature of social injustice, this thesis takes a data driven approach to define a social injustice index for a specific country, India. The thesis is an attempt to quantify and track social injustice through social media to see the current social climate. This was accomplished by developing a web scraper to collect hate speech data from Twitter. The tweets collected were then classified by their level of hate and presented on a choropleth map of India. Ultimately, a user viewing the ‘India Social Injustice Index’ map should be able to simply view an index score for a desired state in India through a single click. This thesis hopes to make it simple for any user viewing the social injustice map to make better sense of injustice issues.
