          ABSTRACT

          Mass media and big data constitute powerful information tools that fuel extremist, populist messaging. Demagogues turn to information tools to convey polarizing views, and governments increasingly rely on data and artificial intelligence to manage immigration. The speakers will describe how three global, deep‐seated, and historic societal ills—anti‐Black racism, anti‐immigrant sentiment, and misinformation—converge to typecast, vilify, and pathologize Black diasporic immigrants. The speakers will also share examples of anti‐Black, anti‐immigrant, and misinformed policymaking, rhetoric, and cultural norms within the United Kingdom and United States. Particular attention is granted to problematic assumptions within large‐scale population datasets that narrate migration tropes.
