Social Justice Resources: Training & Teaching Resources

From the website: "The Colours of Resistance Archive is a collection of analysis and tools for liberatory organizing and movement-building."

From the website: "This is an online Left reader focusing largely on American resistance history."

From the website: "Its goal is to introduce students to a more accurate, complex, and engaging understanding of United States history than is found in traditional textbooks and curricula. The empowering potential of studying U.S. history is often lost in a textbook-driven trivial pursuit of names and dates. People’s history materials and pedagogy emphasize the role of working people, women, people of color, and organized social movements in shaping history. Students learn that history is made not by a few heroic individuals, but instead by people’s choices and actions, thereby also learning that their own choices and actions matter."

From the website: "The Native American Program of Legal Aid Services of Oregon, the Indigenous Ways of Knowing Program at Lewis & Clark Graduate School of Education and Counseling, the Western States Center, the Pride Foundation and Basic Rights Oregon collaborated on the nation’s first guide for Two Spirit and LGBT equity in Indian Country."

From the website: "The National Equity Atlas was developed as a tool for the growing movement to create a more equitable, sustainable, and resilient economy. It is a comprehensive resource for data to track, measure, and make the case for inclusive growth in America’s regions, and states, and nationwide."

From the website: "When professors foster inclusivity in the classroom, they not only help students learn about some of the issues surrounding diverse populations, but also help give students the voice to be more conversant about diverse issues in their fields and the world. Most important, however, is the engagement of students that otherwise may feel marginalized when their own unique experiences remain invisible."

As the interconnection across and between societies grows, and cultural diversity is increasingly recognized as an inescapable reality of modern life, it is essential that stakeholders at all levels are equipped with the capacities and knowledge to positively manage diversity and pluralism for the benefit of all. It is with these needs in mind, whilst also recognizing the huge potential of the internet as a space for learning and exchange, that UNESCO has developed this e-Learning platform on intercultural dialogue. The platform is an evolving global hub of resources and information to record, inspire, share and exchange innovative and impactful action on intercultural dialogue among diverse audiences, which will be sustained and enhanced over the course of the International Decade for the Rapprochement of Cultures (2013-22). Through its broad set of functions, the platform is a one-stop shop for people searching for resources or inspiration on intercultural dialogue, and will strengthen the exchange of ideas and thoughts between the many different groups working within this field

Panel discussion organized by Cornell University entitled "When WHITE Libraries Happen to BLACK Rare & Distinctive Collections: Finding Pathways from Marginalization to Narratives of Empowerment". Although the focus is strongly on special collections and archives, the observations and lessons may apply across all sorts of libraries as they attempt to amplify Black and BIPOC collections and voices.
