Vision

Raedial envisions a world in which books with intersectional characters are accessible to all people.

Mission

Raedial is a data processing social enterprise focused on literary accessibility in the book industry. We work alongside authors and literary organizations to support readers by improving how identity-related terminology impacts the discoverability of characters with diverse and intersectional experiences.

Values

  • We value a continued commitment to growth and learning in all facets of life, both personally and professionally. For this reason, Raedial supports continuing education, conference attendance, and other personal and professional development opportunities.

  • We value the intersectional identities that make us unique. Our differences are to be celebrates, which means we must be respectful and empathetic in our interactions with one another.

  • Remaining fluid and adaptable allows Raedial to welcome and embrace change. How we see and experience our identities—and the identities of those around us—are always changing, so we must be prepared for and welcoming of these new experiences at all times.

  • Raedial cannot thrive if its community members are not of sound mind and body. For this reason, Raedial makes self-care a priority for all individuals, both mentally and physically. We are stronger together when all of us are intentional and dedicated to our own health and wellbeing.
