Black Lives Matter           #StopAsianHate

As the Head of the Social Work & Urban Public Health Library, I condemn racial violence and systemic racism, the impact of which permeates the lives of BIPOC Americans.   I stand in solidarity with protest against police brutality and all mechanisms of institutionalized oppression.  In keeping with my professions’ long-standing traditions as agents for social justice, I affirm my commitment to egalitarianism, anti-oppressive pedagogies, and the pursuit of knowledge for all.
