<p class="xxxmsonormal">I’m interested in being part of a discussion and action as well. I think the most important thing we can do is work on making our libraries and our institutions actively anit-racist.

<p class="xxxmsonormal">At Seattle Central, library staff have used some of our “work from home” time to read and discuss Ibram X. Kendi’s How to Be and Anti-Racist, and these discussions have led to more work on reviewing and revising our policies and services.
Along with guided conversations about the book, we’ve found the following report helpful:

<p class="xxxmsonormal">C. Interested parties draft a statement re:anti-racist and counter anti-blackness stance along with a proposal of what to do with said statement and exec team sends it to the LLC for a vote<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="xxxmsonormal">D. Interested parties call a side meeting to discuss and perhaps draft and then propose to exec team some formal action<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal">After participating in the protest today, I am wondering how each of you are feeling about your library and your school and their commitment to anti-blackness and anti-racist practices.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal">I am also wondering if there is anything the Library Leadership Council would be interested in doing in solidarity—issuing a statement, thinking about practices, engaging in conversations with staff, or something
else entirely.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal">I write this pretty late on a Saturday, I realize, and am not expecting any immediate responses—but I am “fired up” (as they say) and would love to work with others who are as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xxxgmail-m-4050069249833527943xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
