Creating a more just and inclusive world begins with knowledge.

The information contained on this page is intended to serve as a resource for individuals to deepen their anti-racism work. If you are reading this and you have not engaged in anti-racism work previously, please use these resources to begin to grow your understanding of the topic and to explore the many ways that we as a society and a college can commit to a more just and inclusive society. 

“To be antiracist is to think nothing is behaviorally wrong or right — inferior or superior — with any of the racial groups. Whenever the antiracist sees individuals behaving positively or negatively, the antiracist sees exactly that: individuals behaving positively or negatively, not representatives of whole races.”

Dr. Ibrahim X. Kendi
