Скачать или смотреть IASSIST 2023: B1 IASSIST’s Anti-Racism Resources Introduction and Hackathon

IASSIST’s Anti-Racism Resources Interest Group was formed in December 2020, as part of a suite of actions the Association took to respond to the deaths in the U.S. of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery, among other (on-going) acts of violence against African Americans. The group’s charge is to:

Compile a variety of resources that might otherwise be difficult to find, e.g., datasets documenting racism and the Black experience internationally; tools, articles and rubrics for building anti-racism into the process of working with data across the research lifecycle; advice about combining and cleaning data around particular topics or to handle difficult analysis issues; etc.

Leaders of the Group invite attendees to attend this unique session to learn about our progress and, in an active hands-on session, add resources to our lists and ideas for future activities to our arsenal. Bring your laptop or share with a friend to make your voice heard! We especially want to invite participants from a variety of countries.
