The DWG Reading Group #2

Submitted on Friday, January 10, 2020

Let’s talk critically about our education and professions! Join the MISC Diversity Working Group (DWG) for its SECOND reading group session where we’ll discuss Kellee E. Warren’s “We Need These Bodies, But Not Their Knowledge: Black Women in the Archival Science Professions and Their Connection to the Archives of Enslaved Black Women in the French Antilles.” This reading group is meant to complement studies at the iSchool and we encourage all iSchool students, staff, faculty, and alumni to join us for our reading group series.

This reading group is affiliated with an initiative coming out of UofT’s Jackman Humanities Institute to encourage students of professional faculties to think critically about their education. Light refreshments will be served.

If you have any questions, suggestions or concerns, please email us at thediversityworkinggroup@gmail.com. We encourage everyone to register on Eventbrite if you plan on attending.
