Resources on Antiracist Pedagogy
Below is a curated list of some resources on antiracism including antiracist pedagogy, becoming an antiracist educator, as well as broader work on systemic racism. This is certainly not meant to be an exhaustive list nor the only list of resources and learning opportunities. The TLC acknowledges and values the many people on and around our campus engaged in this work on diversity, equity, and inclusion, especially those with lived (often painful) experiences, and welcome ideas for resources that should be included. We fully expect this work to be an ongoing life-long process of continuing education. Please e-mail TLC@geneseo.edu with any suggestions for items that should be included on this list.
This work is part of a larger effort to become an antiracist campus in accordance with our Community Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and the College Senate Resolution in Support of the Black Lives Matter Movement passed on June 11, 2020.

Antiracism is the 鈥渁ctive process of identifying and eliminating racism by changing systems, organizational structures, policies and practices and attitudes, so that power is redistributed and shared equitably.鈥 (from the National Action Committee on the Status of Women International Perspectives: Women and Global Solidarity)
