BCDI Norms and Resources

The following materials are a collection of open source resources that BCDI, and our partner organization, Freedom Library, have modified and curated for use in our community and beyond. Our hope is that these can be helpful for other organizations and collective groups working to build more just, equitable and anti-oppressive communities.

We emphasize that these documents are not solely the work of our organizations, and name intentionally the other grassroots organizations and individuals who have been doing this work for a long time.

We view our efforts as a continuation of these works, and request that you always give credit, and donate when possible, to us and these organizations in a show of appreciation for the labor of BIPOC leaders, thinkers and creators and their allies.

For further inquiry about consultation and facilitation in utilizing any of these practices, contact education@bataviacdi.org
