<p>The Washington Library Association decries the brutality Black communities experience from those charged to protect and serve. Libraries are providers of vital resources for historically under-served communities, and this work has never been more important
 than it is now. We are responsible for continuing to do this difficult, sometimes painful work that demands we address our biases and how they impact our ability to serve our communities equitably. We urge library professionals across Washington to fight for
 Black lives, actively oppose systemic oppression and police brutality, and prioritize anti-racism in all that we do. The WLA Board is committed to doing this anti-racist work within our association. To be silent is to be complicit.<br>
<br>
The Urban Libraries Council has also released a poignant statement on race and social equity, which serves as a baseline for libraries to build policies and actions designed to make their communities more inclusive and just. The statement has been signed by
 163 public libraries across North America. Learn more <a href="http://clicks.memberclicks-mail.net/ls/click?upn=1sPJVT4NUWUrCwmKEkkNY6LItjuSTZrX-2BnjAas-2ByBnOyuvykuyNBKDBlzl0wPBSrzQ7lnl4sFmy9-2Baly9hvwmvSqU17icYFKe8mrwFqRyaQolKGpRUEGUkDpWh2q8Inl-YNt_eAEKrx-2F1cOzUxl-2Fwf92j-2Fk4QJK0BEs-2BdcRAEG4eWxFpyiWvVgBRfdjIhA1xsOAV1UixyiWakA6CwZgPWTgV3b0kSBto9-2FcLcaOQPGGJPLsjXADadHCKX6Or-2F0l7ySgysCHKX-2BvEgQgs2b8BifUYKdvgmNr7Rwy1l54o4bhy7XmeO8ymxg4Kqlo6sK8ez6FS3GY875rdgrm7IIUpmK9mFuKnhgK-2Bkrg1Cytk5GWkK3eZkPV-2FUehPbXz9U80082POAXQr3Hj2BYl0Lj-2F39Xe8e1Ex1h9N9jR7hE7zkUVCVG9TvhhwYczapYuJbckuUlmGqxRZObekhaQY2yydKqR-2BgLg-3D-3D"><b>here</b></a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
