Synopsis:
Black, Indigenous, and Peoples of Color--reimagine library and information science through the lens of critical race theory. In Knowledge Justice, Black, Indigenous, and Peoples of Color scholars use critical race theory (CRT) to challenge the foundational principles, values, and assumptions of Library and Information Science and Studies (LIS) in the United States. They propel CRT to center stage in LIS, to push the profession to understand and reckon with how white supremacy affects practices, services, curriculum, spaces, and policies.
About the Author: Sofia Leung (she/her) is a librarian, facilitator, and educator in the Boston area. Jorge R. L pez-McKnight (he/him) is a community college library worker in Austin, Texas.
