Join us as we explore what it means to create an equitable and anti-racist syllabus. Together we will define terms, share ways to incorporate diverse perspectives and consider the equitable integration of materials into course syllabi. Presenters will encourage participants to tap into their biases and areas of growth to improve and build upon their own existing syllabi.
