Go over the group agreements, then discuss the following questions:
- How has it been for you since the last meeting? Did anything from the book stick with you during that time?
- What were your “aha!” moments while reading this chapter?
- Both race and ethnicity are social constructs and are not based on genetics. How have race and ethnicity played a role in determining the value of groups in society?
- What kinds of ethnic racism have you observed, encountered, or have been subjected to?
- What are the origins of the types ethnic racism you are familiar with?
- How have policies reinforced ethnic racism in the US? Have these policies impacted libraries in any way?
- Why is the question "Where are you from?" inherently racist?
Wrap up: Depending on time, you may ask people to put these in chat
- What is a specific action you can take in the next week that is anti-racist?
- What worked today? What didn’t work?
