Intentionally Intersectional: Feminist Programming in the Library

Description

How can librarians be ‘intentionally intersectional’ in the way we program? Intentional intersectionality encourages a purposeful way of looking at institutional systems to make at-risk and historically marginalized community members, especially women, more visible.

In library programming, intentionally intersectional programs are purposefully designed to transform culture so that people are treated equally and with respect. During this session, we will critically self-reflect on the biases we bring to creating programs and work to dismantle these biases in order to form a meaningful and intentionally intersectional way of thinking about library programming.
