The Swan Center
Digital Library
Need a starting point for research that centers Black Lives and/or the impact of anti-Black Racism?
We’ve curated this space just for you!
The Digital Library is an ever-evolving repository of research that centers various aspects of Black-identified life and how it intersects with white supremacy, patriarchy, and oppression. For those beginning their journey of research, this space serves as a literary spark of evidence-based materials. As a living library, we expect this space to expand with the help of wonderful learners like you! If you wish to provide materials to the library, please send those resources to info@swancenteradvocacy.org.
We wish to thank our volunteer curator, Dr. Brandy Simula, for their work on this project.

We ask that you pay these wonderful Black creatives for their labor by leaving donations to their causes. Please visit Charles’s page for more info on his preferred digital platforms.
