Call for Volunteers for the Stolen Lives Project
The mission of the Stolen Lives Project is to
assemble national documentation of people
killed by U.S. law enforcement agents from
1990 to the present. Due to the fact that there
had not been any federal accounting of police
killings made available to the public, those
who worked with the national grassroots
organization October 22 Coalition to Stop
Police Brutality, Repression and the
Criminalization of a Generation decided in
1996 to conduct our own documentation.
Through grassroots efforts, the second
edition of the book Stolen Lives: Killed by Law
Enforcement was published by Seven Stories
Press in 1999, which documented over 2,000
cases in the 1990s nationally. The pages of
this book are available as PDFs on the Stolen
Lives website (stolenlives.org).
Since the publication of the book, local and
national documentation has been unevenly
updated and produced in different read-only
forms across the country. Plans are currently
underway to bring the Stolen Lives Project
online as a searchable database. As with past
attempts to gather national documentation,
the most enormous hurdle is consistent datagathering across the country. Anyone who
can help with the research and
documentation will contribute greatly to
realizing the goal of bringing the Stolen Lives
Project online in a more useable and
accessible form.
If you would like to help in any way, please
contact [email protected].
See below for different ways one can help.
For more information, visit the website at
stolenlives.org or
www.facebook.com/StolenLivesProject.
Below are some explanations and ideas for what needs to and could be done to
move ahead in updating the national documentation for the Stolen Lives Project
and getting an accessible database online.
 Conduct research. Most volunteers prefer to research local cases, but you can
also help to provide a more complete national picture by focusing your
research on one of the states for which no one is currently documenting
incidents of police killings or for which there is obvious missing data. There are
different parts or steps to the documentation process, so taking up any one of
the parts is a step forward:
o Search for articles and other sources and forward the link and text for
someone else to enter the data. There are also existing sources with data
that can be mined (e.g.: Wikipedia entry on police killings in the U.S.,
Killedbypolice.net, etc.).
o Enter existing accumulated data without having to have to read articles or
write up descriptions.
o Fact-check data already entered.
o If you work in academia or in the research field, create or coordinate a
project for students or researchers to conduct the research and datagathering.

Write the stories. There is a growing collection of sources for Stolen Lives cases
without a summary. Read through all the articles, posts, testimonies, etc. about
the circumstances in which the individual was killed and compose a short
narrative to represent the Stolen Life. You can also help review and edit stories
that have been written to ensure accuracy and consistency.

Code the website and/or consult on database engineering, web accessibility for
people with disabilities, interface design, etc.

Contribute financially. Fund an internship or a research project through which
someone could be compensated for committing hours a week to data entry or
editing. If you cannot offer funding yourself, organize a fundraiser or assist in
grant-writing. Once the online database is ready to launch, it will need
dedicated funding to maintain.

Get the word out. Organize an event at which attendees can be introduced to
the Stolen Lives Project and what it entails. Make copies of this Call for
Volunteers and distribute it to friends, colleagues, neighbors.

Attend and document vigils for Stolen Lives and the annual October 22nd
National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality, Repression and the
Criminalization of a Generation. Support families destroyed by police violence
and stand with them in the fight for justice.
For any questions or to ensure there isn’t redundancy in working on any of the above, please contact [email protected]
