Tacoma Public Library is opposed to white supremacy in all of its forms and is committed to fostering an organization that is actively anti-racist.
We believe that Black Lives Matter.
We are grieving with our black community and all communities of color who continue to be harmed by institutionalized racism.
We are committed to being a trusted community resource available to all and will provide resources and public programs that seek to reflect the values of anti-racism and elevate the voices of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC).
