[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: Nominations to RHF

Hi all,

I agree with David.  There is nothing sacred about the numbers.  Expanding would be something to consider.  

On another note,  we would be expanding LRA and ILA’s directions, not competing.  We are connected with LRA now so we could support their initiative or build a relationship with this initiative.  Perhaps our mentoring process could be revisited to support it in new ways.  

Just a thought or two.

However it has not focused on matters of race and ethnicity directly.  Perhaps it should.  We can make that happen right away.  It is important to note, however, that we might end up competing with LRA's and NCTE's programs to establish communities for young minority scholars.

Instead of suspending the recruitment of White scholars, why don't we just expand our efforts to recruit minority scholars. And, perhaps--given the issues with the pipeline into academia in the past, we should modify the 25 year rule.

Much more helpful would be an initiative, as Judith suggests, to support a diversity of young scholars. Or a program of mentorship aimed at scholars of color, or an  initiative to support undergraduates of color, especially those who are at risk of not staying in school.

It would be a move against systemic racism that would express solidarity with our colleagues of colour. Some of us would even be prepared to resign to help even up the numbers and to speed up the process should this be considered necessary.
