MISC Statement on Anti-Asian Racism
Our group works to improve the experiences of Black, Indigenous, and Persons of Colour (BIPOC) at the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Information through workshops, reading groups, special events, and advocacy work with faculty and university administration.
We welcome current students and alumni to join us in our work!
A Report on Diversity and Inclusion Experiences at the Faculty of Information 2020
So far, we are finding that the proportion of identifiably BIPOC scholars on course syllabi is often around 15–20% or much lower. This is unacceptable. As a reference, over 51% of Toronto’s population is BIPOC.
Our syllabus reviews are ongoing. To promote transparency, we plan to release our tabulations in full when the project is complete. If you would like to see tabulations for published data before then, please contact thediversityworkinggroup@gmail.com.
