Antiracism and Racial Justice Resources
Lurie College is committed to addressing and uprooting racism, racial injustice, and racial inequity in our community, policies, and practices so we've compiled a sampling of resources for our students, alumni, faculty, staff, and partners to utilize in their pursuit of antiracism, racial justice, and racial equity.
