With a focus on student safety and well-being, this guide was designed to provide general information and links to resources about anti-oppression and related topics such as diversity, inclusion, and social justice for the UNLV academic community. Intended to be non-partisan, many resources offered here are for everyone regardless of political affiliation or viewpoint. In some cases, resources and links related to issues and specific policies proposed by elected officials are part of this guide as these issues and proposed policies directly impact professional and personal lives of members of our community, such as immigrants or people of color.
We would like to offer our appreciation to the individuals and other valued colleagues who contributed to the development of this guide.
The current curators of this resource guide are grateful for the vision and efforts of the original creators:
Dr. Anita Revilla
Heidi Johnson
Dr. Christine Clark
This guide seeks to serve as a starting point and is not meant to be exhaustive. It is our goal to continue its development in response to evolving needs of the community.

This guide is intended to be a resource for students of marginalized identities and students who seek to be allies for different communities of people whose identities are marginalized. This guide is intended to combat racism and xenophobia and all other forms of oppression that students may experience, through providing links to web resources and library resources, as well as language that can be used to engage in thoughtful dialogue about such issues, where each party is respected.
