Antiracism
Antiracism Teach-In at the Seton Hall University Libraries
Seton Hall University Libraries stand against racism in our society and communities, including here at Seton Hall University, in line with President Nyre's June 1, 2020 message and Cardinal Tobin's June 3, 2020 Statement on the death of George Floyd and the national protests.
We have gathered together resources collected by our Africana Studies librarians, and recommended by numerous others including but not limited to members of student organizations comprising the SHU Black Caucus, members of the faculty Diversity Coalition, BIPOC librarians, educators and Africana scholars at numerous institutions across the United States and the globe.
