Please join the SJSU School of Information for a Your Voices
Diversity webcast. Gina Schlesselman-Tarango is our guest speaker.

*Abstract:* Through a discussion of her “The Legacy of Lady Bountiful:
White Women in the Library” (2016) and “How Cute! Race, Gender, and
Neutrality in Libraries” (2017), Gina Schlesselman-Tarango will trace some
of the political work that is performed at the intersections of whiteness
and gender in libraries, demonstrating how that which surfaces in our field
is illustrative and often in service of larger racial projects. She will
end with reflections on what whiteness studies can offer to LIS and where
it might fall short.

*Please register in advance to attend this webcast:*
