Columbus City Council is debating whether Flock license plate reader cameras could be used for immigration enforcement, but there is a much bigger question that nobody seems to be asking. Where are the cameras? Are they distributed equally throughout Columbus, or are some neighborhoods being watched more than others? Before taxpayers spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on surveillance technology, residents deserve answers. How many cameras are located in predominantly Black neighborhoods? How many are located in predominantly White neighborhoods? What criteria were used to determine placement? Who approved the locations? What data was used to justify them? How many crimes have these cameras actually helped solve? What is the return on investment for taxpayers? The Black Wall is not arguing for or against the cameras. We are asking for transparency. If surveillance is being used to improve public safety, then the city should have no problem showing the public where the cameras are, why they were placed there, and what results they have produced. Because if one community is being monitored more heavily than another, residents deserve to know. And if the cameras are protecting all communities equally, the data should prove it. The question is simple. Are all Columbus neighborhoods being watched equally? The Black Wall wants the data.
