Courtney is joined by Aisury Vasquez, Diversity Outreach Coordinator for the Division of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, where they share some resources for folks who are looking to examine their own thoughts and beliefs around racism. As mentioned in the podcast, here are the book titles and authors for reference: “How to be an AntiRacist” by Ibram X. Kendi; “Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America” by Ibram X. Kendi; “White Fragility: Why it’s so hard for white people to talk about racism” by Robin Diangelo; “Me and White Supremacy” by Layla F. Saad; “The New Jim Crow” by Michelle Alexander; “Eloquent Rage” by Brittney Cooper; “Bad Feminist” by Roxane Gay; “Sister Outsider” by Audre Lorde, and “Ain’t I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism” by bell hooks. (For reference, bell hooks doesn’t capitalize the letters in their name, so that is not a typo.)
