SUMMARY:Anti-Racism Reads: Algorithms of Oppression
DESCRIPTION:The Libraries are excited to introduce a new format for our 
 next installment of Anti-Racism Reads: a six session\, in-person book club 
 designed to support deeper conversation and sustained engagement. This 
 term\, we'll be reading Safiya Umoja Noble’s book\, Algorithms of 
 Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism\, examining how search 
 engines and digital platforms reinforce racism and inequality.\n\nMeeting 
 every other week\, this extended format encourages a slower\, more 
 reflective approach to Noble’s work. Together\, we’ll explore how 
 commercial search engines shape what we “know” about race\, gender and 
 difference\, and how these systems reinforce long-standing forms of 
 oppression. \n\nTopics include:\n    Algorithmic bias\n    Representations 
 of Black women and girls online\n    Corporate control over information\,\n 
    The responsibilities of libraries and educational institutions in 
 resisting data discrimination\n\nThis small\, conversation-based book club 
 that will meet bi-weekly for six sessions:\n\nMarch 5: Introduction and 
 framing\nMarch 19: Chapter 1 - Google\, libraries\, platforms\nApril 2: 
 Chapter 2 - Misogynoir\nApril 16: Chapter 3 - Neutrality myths\nApril 30: 
 Chapter 4 – 5 - Libraries\, activism\, policy interventions\nMay 14: 
 Chapter 6 and conclusion\n\nParticipants are encouraged to attend all 
 sessions\, as discussions are designed as a cumulative learning experience 
 that relies on ongoing engagement. \nThis is an in-person event with 
 limited capacity\; please register to reserve your seat for the full 
 series. If you have accommodation requests or are unexpectedly unable to 
 attend a session\, reach out to libevents@uwaterloo.ca.    \n
