The beautiful thing about this awakening is that it is being led by BIPOC. One of the most prominent accounts to follow on instagram is @BIPOC_in_LIS! This account brings together so many issues of people who are oppressed--not only in LIS and libraries, but also in education and in general society. Every day I am moved by her posts and also learn from them. @BIPOC_in_LIS can be thought of as a clearinghouse of information related to BIPOC in libraries. @BIPOC_in_LIS goes beyond BIPOC and posts about all sorts of oppressed groups and intersections! </i></span></blockquote><div><font color="#000000" face="questrial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="questrial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px;white-space:pre-wrap">You can read more <a href="https://www.librarianswithspines.com/post/bipoc_in_lis-speaking-truth-to-power-one-instagram-post-at-a-time">here</a>.</span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="questrial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="questrial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:15px;white-space:pre-wrap">
