Racial Literacy Resources

From Concordia University: "The term “racial literacy” was coined by France Winddance Twine in her 2010 book, “A White Side of Black Britain: Interracial Intimacy and Racial Literacy.” Sociologist Erik Love elaborates on Twine’s concept of racial literacy, describing it as, “A ‘form of intellectual and antiracist labor…a reading practice, a way of perceiving and responding to the racial climate and racial structures that individuals encounter daily.’ Those who have gained racial literacy in a given context have the ability to ‘recognize, name, challenge, and manage various forms of everyday racism.’ ” #RacialLit #RLPton #NIOT
