Join AZPM for a Screening and Panel Discussion for The Librarians

By AZPM

Overview

Librarians emerge as first responders in the fight for democracy and our First Amendment Rights.

This event is free and open to the public. If you are able, we welcome a suggested donation of $10 to help support AZPM community events.

In Texas, the Krause List targets 850 books focused on race and LGBTQia+ stories – triggering sweeping book bans across the U.S. at an unprecedented rate. As tensions escalate, librarians connect the dots from heated school and library board meetings nationwide to lay bare the underpinnings of extremism fueling the censorship efforts. Despite facing harassment, threats, and laws aimed at criminalizing their work – the librarians’ rallying cry for freedom to read is a chilling cautionary tale.

A panel discussion will follow this film.

We encourage attendees to bring a new or gently used K–6th grade book to support of the TUSD Family Resource Centers.
