In the Spring 2023, the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition launched a public-records sourced educational resource, the Watch the Watchers website. This website is a searchable index of over 9,300 sworn Los Angeles police officers, displaying their departmental photos, LAPD serial numbers, and other official information about each officer.
At the same time, MediaJustice launched Copaganda Clapback, a curriculum and training series facilitated in cities across the United States aimed at understanding police control of media ecosystems across the country.
