Racial Tension On Display: Engaging With Black Lives Matter And Negotiating Public Push-Back, Michael Mungin, Yasmeen Shorish

Libraries

This poster details the production of a book display on Black Lives Matter and the resulting vandalism that occurred. The Libraries used this event as an educational opportunity, while recognizing the harm that it could bring to communities that identify with the Black Lives Matter movement. The poster also addresses areas of improvement for the Libraries and the importance of outreach activities for our communities.
