HPU's library offers extensive resources on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The library writes that "while diversity and inclusion are essential practices, challenging and dismantling individual, group, and systemic biases also requires anti-oppression. " This "involves actively working to eradicate biases on all levels, as well as the systems of power and privilege that perpetuate marginalization and oppression."
