The Anti-Racism Book Study is a joint workshop and reading series sponsored by the Institute for Leadership & Action and the Office of Diversity & Inclusion to engage students, staff, faculty, and alumni in working toward understanding race, racism, and their own roles in both contributing to and dismantling systems of power and oppression that disproportionately affect (especially Black and Indigenous) communities of color. This series aims to foster greater community understanding, coalition-building, and leadership skills to tackle racism in all its forms by reading and discussing relevant texts that unpack these topics in an accessible and actionable way. Open to all members (past and present) of the Rutgers-Camden community.
