Confronting Anti-Black Racism e-Learning Course

The Equity Office is excited to launch an e-learning course called Confronting Anti-Black Racism based on Dr. Christopher Taylor’s Arts130 course. This course is now available to all Waterloo students, faculty and staff and is an opportunity for (un)learning and gaining tools to better take anti-racist action in our own lives, at work, home and in our communities.
