About
Black Lives Matter
The resources on this page were generously curated by members of the School’s RISE Committee, Equity & Justice Institute, K-12 diversity coordinators and outside experts in the field of anti-racism.
These resources provide insights into historical and present-day systemic racism and actionable steps you can take to combat inequity. This page is a work in progress; if there is an anti-racism resource you would like considered for inclusion, please email communications@xrds.org.
