About this Event

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be neurodivergent? Are you curious about the lived experience of people from different cultures? Do you have questions for people who live with stigma and prejudice but don't know who to ask? The Human Library® creates safe spaces for dialogue where topics like these are discussed openly to challenge stigma and prejudice.

In partnership with the First Unitarian Church of Oakland, we are holding this FREE public event from 1:00-4:00pm. Come for one or more 30-minute, brave conversations at this drop-in event. Unjudge Someone today! Last Reading starts at 3:30pm.

Tickets are not required, but encouraged.

Are you a Human who has experienced some form of stigma that makes it difficult for you to comply with societal norms? Do you like to engage in dialogue, listen to others, and unjudge their questions? If you'd like to be trained as a Book in the Human LIbrary, please fill out this form and we'll get back to you ASAP: https://forms.gle/7Ai3sZw158QZPb3g8
