A library of people
This week my friend, Beth Tener, shared this very cool idea with me. I hope a Human Library comes near me soon.
"The Human Library® is a not for profit learning platform, that has hosted personal conversations designed to challenge stigma and stereotypes since 2000.
"The Human Library creates a safe space for dialogue where topics are discussed openly between our human books and their readers.
"All of our human books are volunteers with personal experience with their topic. The Human Library is a place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered.
"The Human Library host events virtually and in libraries, museums, festivals, conferences, schools, universities and for the private sector. We have published our books in over 80 countries."
