Hi all,

Please excuse the cross-posting.

Join us this Thursday, June 2 at 7:30 p.m. for our June "Unpacking" discussion examining dog whistles. What are they? Where are we likely to find them in our libraries? What do we do when we observe them? Are they protected? So many questions.

Unpacking is a discussion-based forum created to provide a space in which white and white-identifying individuals can examine the realities of their white privilege. Through conversation, we explore how to actively dismantle systems which oppress Black, Indigenous, and People of Color and from which all white and white-identifying individuals benefit. Unpacking is designed for the communal education of white and white-identifying individuals, but welcomes all people who would like to contribute to or engage in this work. Additionally, though Unpacking is rooted in conversations about race, we welcome a broad range of topics which can help libraries and museums to become more diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible.
