How Librarians Can Clarify Key Concepts in Critical Race Theory — 2023

How Librarians Can Clarify Key Concepts in Critical Race Theory

Workshop | May 2023 | Time TBD

While Ethnic Studies is a broad array of information about the diverse populations that make up the U.S., Critical Race Theory is a more narrowly focused critique of how racism is used in systemic ways in U.S. institutions. Librarians are in a prime position to discuss these complexities by introducing patrons to books, films and other media. Talk includes a toolkit to help do this.
