Racism written in chalk on chalkboard partially erased

As part of our commitment to doing the work of an anti-racist organization, Worthington Libraries believes our library must be a resource to encourage civil discourse that will allow our community to have the difficult, but necessary conversations to face the legacy of racial inequality, bias and a system that has left far too many behind for far too long. 

We have put together the following list of resources to help you get started and hope you will join us in this important and long-overdue conversation.
