A reminder that data and statistical literacy are skills necessary on the high school equivalency exams as well as our lives. The CUNY Slow Reveal Graph Collection has over a hundred graphs rendered with a slow reveal treatment, ready to use in class.
There have been many new additions to the collection, especially in the Immigration Slow Reveal Graphs Folder.
Below are descriptions of the some new graphs, as well as the first image of each slow reveal sequence:

Daily ICE Arrests By Arrest Location looks at the the number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests that happened at prisons/jails and the number that have happened in communities, between 2024 and 2025.
Daily ICE Arrests By Criminal History looks at the number of ICE arrests that have been people with violent convictions, people with other past convictions, people with pending criminal charges, and people with no criminal charges.

These graphs are great! Thank you for sharing updated data that we can use with our classes.
