On Fridays, we have been trying to highlight electronic resources from the College Libraries collection for users to explore during e-learning, and today, we are sharing databases and books on historical racial disparities, inequities, and protest movements. Educate yourself using resources recommended by Aaisha Haykal, Manager of Archival Services at the Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture.
