Details
You can't judge a book by its cover. And it's the same with humans.
At the ACU Human Library event, our books are people!
As a participant, you 'borrow' Human Books for up to 20 minutes at a time. You then have an open and judgement free conversation and ask questions about the book's topic.
Our Human Books are volunteers from all walks of life. They often represent societal groups that are misunderstood or subjected to prejudice, discrimination, exclusion, or stigma.
At Blacktown’s inaugural event, some of our book titles include:
- Priest
- Muslim
- Wheelchair-bound
- Refugee
- Pagan
- Queer
- Anti-natalist
- Neurodivergent
- Transgender
- Domestic abuse survivor
Have you ever wanted to ask someone an awkward question but then thought, ‘I can’t ask that’?
Are you open to challenging preconceptions, gaining greater understanding, and getting to know someone from the wider community?
Would you like to see life from a different perspective?
Then the ACU Human Library is for you.
Registrations are welcome, but not mandatory.
Attend anytime between 11 am and 2 pm and see which Human Books are available to chat with.
