Antiracist Teen/Tween Collection Development & Programming

Adrienne Almeida, MLIS
Infopeople has a free hour-long webinar coming up Wednesday July 29 at 2pm CT that will help you in your work with teens and tweens, using an antiracist lens. Adrienne Almeida is the presenter.

"Right now, we are a profession called to lead the charge for antiracist work. It’s time for listening, reflecting, and thoughtful action. If you are a BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color), how are you supporting the antiracist work of your white colleagues without doing all the heavy lifting on your own? If you are white, how are you holding yourself and your colleagues accountable to be transparently antiracist in your collection development and programming? Who are you listening to and learning from to improve your antiracist practice? Let’s come together to unpack resources and protocols to refresh our toolboxes and inspire our communities to be agents of positive change. Attendees will leave with a refreshed toolkit to connect their patrons and colleagues with resources required to be agents of antiracist work in their communities."
