About the event
Meet Our History is a Human Library Event held at Azure Beach Public Library during History Week 2024 (7th September - 15th September). The event focuses on the stories that the Indigenous communities experience as part of their past. Volunteers with an Indigenous background will be the books for this event to share their stories with their readers.
What is a Human Library?
The purpose of the Human library is to break down stereotypes and start open conversations about stigmatised groups. It is also a way to advocate for acceptance and respect for human diversity and different characteristics. Human libraries challenge these prejudices by having the books being human volunteers that can be borrowed by the readers to hear their stories in person.
