Webinar: Describing Realities, Imagining Directions: Critical Race Pedagogies in Teaching & Learning

The ACRL Instruction Section Teaching Methods Committee is running an online event on May 30, 2019, 1pm-2pm USA Eastern time (which is 6-7pm UK time): Describing Realities, Imagining Directions: Critical Race Pedagogies in Teaching & Learning. "In this presentation, two academic librarians, Jen Brown and Jorge López-McKnight, who are currently practicing and imagining race-focused critical pedagogies, will discuss their teaching and learning approaches that will provide attendees with perspectives, ideas, and strategies to transport to their teaching. Critical race pedagogies draw from a range of theories and concepts that are grounded in affirmation, sustainment, and the centering of the racialized and intersectional information worlds of our learners and communities. Critical race pedagogies are committed to critiquing dominant oppressive power structures, while aiming to provide transformative learning experiences in the spaces we teach, learn, and live in."
