Our hope is that this new indexing system can inspire others to think more deeply about the hidden marginalising mechanisms embedded in the discipline.

We know it's not a perfect system - if you have any comments or questions, get in touch at [email protected]!

You'll find a new category tree on the website, as well as many new filters to search through our entries.

If you'd like to learn more about how this indexing system works and the thinking behind it, see this page: diversityreadinglist.org/indexing-sys...,

There's a lot to say about it, and a lot of people to thank - including @apaphilosophy.bsky.social and @standrewsphil.bsky.social for their generous support, Quentin Pharr for his tireless work re-categorising all our entries, and our Editors for their continuous help!
