Racism Untaught teaches participants to utilize the design research process to identify racialized design and critically assess anti-racist design approaches. Facilitated and developed by Lisa Mercer and Terresa Moses, this training is meant for faculty, administrators, and other campus professionals to gain a framework for identifying, contextualizing, and re-imagining forms of racialized design.
