Anti-Oppression Resources
Our work is centred on providing BIPOC with the tools and support they need to create, maintain and grow their careers in the Canadian publishing industry. With all of the barriers that we are faced with, sometimes it isn’t enough to simply have an outlet to vent and get advice from your peers. For that reason, we are sharing a list of resources where you can seek out a variety of different kinds of information, assistance, and connect with other experts who might be able to provide insights.
