Use this page to turn your situation into a structured case. Keep all public text anonymous and focused on what the entities did. Your real contact details are stored in the private Identity Vault, not on the public case page.

New Case Form – Step 2

The form below matches the Black Justice Engine case template. You can save the case as a draft or submit it for public listing once the backend is connected.

Section 3 – IC Framing (Public)

Identity Engine – case focus on the racial profile of person or entity (Who is giving you trouble?)

Use the standard Identity Engine dropdowns to declare the race, ethnicity and sub-branch of the person/entity/organisation the focus is on. They could be anti-Black racist suspect/s in your opinion.

Race *

Ethnicity *

Sub-Branch *

Identity dropdowns ready (standard mode).

Me – IC3 Black Me – IC6 Mixed-Black My family – mostly IC3 My family – mostly IC6 Other IC3 / IC6 people Mixed group (includes non-Black)

Section 4 – Harm and Justice Path (Public) What kinds of harm have you experienced and/or are you experiencing? Where have you tried to get justice so far? Current status of your case

Section 5 – Short Case Summary (Public) Short case summary

Explain what happened in plain language. Do not include full names, home addresses, emails, phone numbers, bank account numbers, NHS numbers or children’s names. Alternatively, you can refer to a report/document/etc already written instead.

Yes – central to this case Maybe – I suspect racism No – not mainly about race

If yes or maybe, explain briefly. Alternatively, you can refer to a report/document/etc already written instead.

Optional: paste up to 3 public hyperlinks to your full report / evidence pack (ic3csi.com or elsewhere). You can copy these links into the online form later.

Report hyperlink 4 (optional) Report hyperlink 5 (optional) Report hyperlink 6 (optional)

Section 6 – First Timeline Event (Public) What is the first key step you want to record? Event date (approximate is okay) Which organisation acted in this step? (primary actor) Did they push you to another organisation at this step?

No Yes

If yes, which organisation did they send you to? (secondary) What type of event is this? Describe this event in your own words or refer to a report (public)

Do not include full names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, account numbers, NHS numbers or children’s names.

Do you suspect that anti-Black racism or institutional racism shows up in this event?

Yes Maybe No

If yes or maybe, explain briefly or refer to a report/document/etc already written. Do you have evidence for this event?

Yes – summary only Yes – upload redacted file No – not yet

Evidence title Evidence summary (public) Evidence file 1 (redacted before upload) Evidence file 2 (redacted before upload) Evidence file 3 (redacted before upload) Public visibility for uploaded file

Show file publicly Only title and summary publicly

Private note to ic3csi about this evidence (not public)

Section 7 – Privacy, Safety and Consent

I understand that my case summary and timeline will be displayed publicly without my personal contact details, and that institutional names can be shown.

I confirm that I have not included full personal addresses, phone numbers, emails, account numbers, NHS numbers or children’s names in the public sections.

I agree that ic3csi may contact me using my private details to clarify my case or discuss safeguarding.

The Black Justice Engine keeps structured records to expose anti-Black racism and institutional failure. Some personal data is stored privately so we can contact you and manage your case. You can ask us to correct or remove your private contact details at any time.
