www-inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe-org-8882		Locating the Library in Institutional Oppression – In the Library with the Lead Pipe			.html	text/html	6814	548	50	Editor's note: On July 16th, 2014 we published Open Source Outline: Locating the Library within Institutional Oppression, where we discussed nina de jesus's Outline for a Paper I Probably Won't Write and called for authors to use her open source outline as the basis for an article of their own. Lastly, I explore the implications of the library as institutionalized enlightenment ideology using the three logics of white supremacy as proposed by Andrea Smith3 as a way to demonstrate that libraries cannot be distinguished either from their historical roots nor from their contemporary context within a white supremacist settler state. If we view libraries as embodying a particular political ideology (that of enlightenment and its support for democracy) and if we understand that libraries were created to make citizens better, then the role that libraries play, as an institution, in perpetuating settler states becomes clear.	./cache/www-inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe-org-8882.html	./txt/www-inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe-org-8882.txt
