CLEAR has a Citational Politics Working Group, where we work on different concrete strategies to cite differently (more diversely, with equity, with humility, with accountability, more inclusively of different forms of knowledge). Stay tuned for that work. In the meantime, here is a bibliography that got us started and that we continue to build:
