Howard County Library System opens Equity Resource Center to foster learning about racism, culture, history

Amy Brooks, who is a member of the Racial Equity Alliance and an English teacher at Oakland Mills High School, said the center will serve as a resource for her and her students.

“Having these resources and emphasizing their importance in having it centered in such a beautiful way for all of our community to come in makes my job easier as an educator,” Brooks said.

“It really goes hand in hand with what we are trying to do with the Howard County Public School [System] curriculum in trying to get more diverse voices in our novels and in our curriculum to really celebrate all of our students.”
