The speaker brings up the right Big Questions, but misrepresents her two key examples. 1) She defends the crops/monsoon superstition on the basis that it has withstood the test of time. Hashtag defending bad math. 2) She implies COMPASS decides based on race. I am concerned about COMPASS’ bias (cf my Scientific American blog article I wrote for that reason), but it is critical we don’t misrepresent what we seek to criticize.
so informative, thank you

The correlation between the variables used in compass and race exists because of the underlying systematic racism in law enforcement in the USA.
