Antiracist Research and Policy Center - From their website, the mission of the ARPC: "The mission of The Antiracist Research & Policy Center (ARPC) is to convene and team up varied specialists to figure out novel and practical ways to understand, explain, and solve seemingly intractable problems of racial inequity and injustice. Our research and policy work is deliberately antiracist. We consider racist policies and ideas, and not certain racial groups, to be the racial problem. We strive to build an antiracist society of racial equity and justice."
Resources for Race, Equity, Anti-Racism, and Inclusion - We Need Diverse Books has put together a collection of resources that you can view here.
Antiracism Resource Guide - From the guide itself: "This document was created to be used as a resource for anyone looking to broaden their understanding of anti-racism and get involved to combat racism, specifically as it relates to anti-Blackness and police violence. Within this guide, please find a variety of resources to explore practical ways to understand, explain, and solve seemingly intractable problems of racial inequity, white supremacy, police violence, and injustice."

EmbraceRace.org Resources - This resources page from Embrace Race has great information. You can sort by webinars, articles, stories, and more. They have more to offer on their other pages on the site as well.
Raising Race Conscious Children - From their site: " Raising Race Conscious Children [is] a resource to support adults who are trying to talk about race with young children. The goals of these conversations are to dismantle the color-blind framework and prepare young people to work toward racial justice. If we commit to collectively trying to talk about race with young children, we can lean on one another for support as we, together, envision a world where we actively challenge racism each and every day. Many of the blog's posts are geared toward White people but a community of guest bloggers represent diverse backgrounds and the strategies discussed may be helpful for all."
One of their blog entries is: 100 Race-conscious things you can say to your child to advance racial justice
School Library Journal Antiracist Resources and Reads: Lists for All Ages - As a school librarian I get most of my information on what books to purchase for our students from School Library Journal, and they have not disappointed with this amazing list of resources. It includes books, of course, but also articles, videos, etc as well as linking to other comprehensive lists of information on this topic.
One of the resources from the SLJ list above is about Project Ready, a site through UNC-Chapel Hill’s School of Information and Library Science, that "hosts a series of free, online professional development modules for school and public youth services librarians, library administrators, and others interested in improving their knowledge about race and racism, racial equity, and culturally sustaining pedagogy." This module about being an ally seemed like something anyone wanting to be an ally could use to better understand what it is and how to act as an ally and and antiracist.
The Equal Justice Initiative - from their website: "The Equal Justice Initiative is committed to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, to challenging racial and economic injustice, and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society." Bryan Stevenson author of the book Just Mercy, is the founder of the EJI.
Race Forward - From their About page: "Founded in 1981, Race Forward brings systemic analysis and an innovative approach to complex race issues to help people take effective action toward racial equity. Founded in 2002, CSI catalyzes community, government, and other institutions to dismantle structural racial inequity and create equitable outcomes for all. In 2017, Race Forward united with Center for Social Inclusion to become the new Race Forward."
Dismantling Racism Works (dRworks) - A website with lots of great information on Assumptions, Racism Defined, White Supremacy Culture, Action Tools, and other Resources.

The 1619 Project - "The 1619 Project began with the publication, in August 2019, of a special issue of The New York Times Magazine containing essays on different aspects of contemporary American life, from mass incarceration to rush-hour traffic, that have their roots in slavery and its aftermath. Each essay takes up a modern phenomenon, familiar to all, and reveals its history."
The 1619 Podcast - Four hundred years ago, in August 1619, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. No aspect of the country that would be formed here has been untouched by the 250 years of slavery that followed. “1619,” a New York Times audio series hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones, examines the long shadow of that fateful moment.
