Materials abound for equity learning: books, stories, articles, op ed pieces, podcasts, webinars, movies, and more. We’re curious: What resource has made the most impact on you? Which would you recommend? We’re interested in all racial equity and social justice educational information including LGBTQ+, disabilities, women’s issues, incarceration…. We’ve started a list that we hope organizes resources in a way that you find useful. Please keep questioning, talking, and learning, and please share your favorite resources with us at contact@sudburyfoundation.org and we will add them to this post.
