"Engaging in the work of anti-racism in your library"

According to http://www.ala.org/aboutala/sites/ala.org.aboutala/files/content/governance/StrategicPlan/Strategic%20Directions%202017_Update.pdf, “Libraries play a crucial role in empowering diverse populations for full participation in a democratic society.” However, our systems have been developed in a context permeated by institutional racism. How do we rebuild our digital services and collections to come closer to our strongly held ideals? How can we make our practice of librarianship into a radical act of hope for an anti-racist future? Share your experiences and aspirations in conversation with us during our Twitter chat.

Recommended reading ahead of time (optional): Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds by adrienne maree brown (2017). Recommended chapter: “Interdependence and Decentralization: Who we are and how we share” (pp. 83-102)
