SUMMARY:Human Library event
DESCRIPTION:Partnering with the University of South Dakota\, the Edith B. Siegrist Vermillion Public Library is hosting a Human Library\, to be held on Saturday\, April 28th\, 2018\, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm!\n\n \n\nFounded in 2001 in Denmark\, the Human Library organization seeks to promote human rights and social cohesion by creating greater understanding between people. It provides an opportunity for people to learn more about each other while working through stereotypes and discrimination. \n\n \n\nA Human Library consists of volunteers who act as "books" that can be "checked out" by "readers." Each book decides on a title that gives a snapshot of their story: "Veteran\," "Refugee\," or "Recovering Drug Addict\," for instance. The book and reader engage in a 20-minute one-on-one conversation about the book's life and experience\, and then the book can ask questions of the reader as well\, prompting discussion about shared experiences and differing perspectives. \n\n \n\nFor more information visit: www.humanlibrary.org
