N2  - Letters of recommendations (LORs) are an integral part of the academic system, being required at virtually every stage of academic training. As academia was founded and evolved as an exclusionary system, letters of recommendations served as a tool to perpetuate systemic inequities. Even as efforts to close accessibility and retention gaps for minoritized individuals have increased, conscious and unconscious biases continue to seep into letters of recommendations, to the detriment of candidates. While gender bias in LORs has been the subject of several studies and interventions, race and ethnicity as factors have received relatively little consideration.  In this workshop, we address LORs for persons excluded based on ethnicity or race (PEER).
