Resources and supports to help Department members advance equity, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism in our Department community.
Content warning
This page contains discussions of racism, prejudice, discrimination, violence, hate crimes, and related content.
The intention of this resource section is to provide education about racism, prejudice, and discrimination occurring in Canada and North America and to provide tools for unlearning these things. The inclusion of an organization on this list does not indicate that our EDI Committee endorses all of the organization’s actions, including any political positions the organization may have taken on current events.
This section is a work in progress. We consider the resource list to be a jumping-off point for Department members to understand, and take action toward dismantling, the different kinds of prejudice and discrimination that affects our Department Community. Our EDI Committee is developing resource sections for other equity-deserving groups, and we welcome suggestions about other content to include.
