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.

As part of United Against Hate Week, we are holding this FREE public event in partnership with Santa Cruz Public Libraries and the Resource Center for Nonviolence. 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.

United Against Hate Week (October 19-25, 2025) is a call for seven days of local civic action by people in every community to stop the hate and implicit biases that are a dangerous threat to the safety and civility of our neighborhoods, towns and cities.
