This curriculum was written by Zapoura Newton-Calvert. Reading Is Resistance sees reading as an opportunity to seed deeper learning, conversation, and possibilities for action around racial justice and liberation in our communities.
The Social Justice Standards from Learning for Justice, founded by the Southern Poverty Law Center, serve as guides for our work. We also draw from abolitionist, decolonizing, heart/body-centered, and white anti-racist practices. Here is a short list of reads from a few of the many folx and communities who we have and continue to learn from and with:
Abolitionist Practice
Decolonization
Heart/Body Practices
White Anti-Racist Practice
