NO PEACE WITHOUT JUSTICE
This online Pilgrim Library "display" includes both library and free public resources related to the history of race and racism, whiteness and privilege, race and education, and race and criminal justice. This "display" will be updated as more resources become available. You are invited to email suggestions and recommendations to library@defiance.edu.
Please note, this guide is intended to provide general information and resources about racial justice. It is not meant as an exhaustive list of anti-oppression & anti-racism initiatives and information but serves as an introduction to the larger conversations facing systemic racism and recurring acts of violence.

Are you prejudiced? Take the implicit association test
Project Implicit is a non-profit organization and international collaborative network of researchers investigating implicit social cognition - thoughts and feelings that are largely outside of conscious awareness and control. Project Implicit is the product of a team of scientists whose research produced new ways of understanding attitudes, stereotypes and other hidden biases that influence perception, judgment, and action.
Visit the research or demonstration websites to try out some tests and learn more about the research and yourself!
