Intellectual Freedom Teen Meetup
** Formerly the Intellectual Freedom Teen Council (IFTC) **
Join to discuss intellectual freedom issues, your favorite books, and all-things BPL's Books Unbanned initiative. Connect with peers across the country and learn how you can support youth in protecting the right to read whatever they choose.
Please register by 4 pm EST to receive a Zoom link the day of the meetup.
Special Guest: Emma Karin Eriksson (she/her)
Emma Karin (she/her) is an activist-information worker whose personal and professional life is driven by a commitment to social justice. She made her first zine at 13 and immediately recognized their cathartic and transformative powers. Since then she has made countless zines which have ended up as far away as Japan and in Ivy League archival zine collections. Emma Karin is currently a teen librarian at the Windsor Terrace Branch of Brooklyn Public Library.
If you are able, please have a few pieces of 8.5 x11 copy paper handy during the meetup.
