Free webinar: We Are the Alexandria Library Sit-In
In
1939, five Black men walked into the all-white Alexandria (Va.) Library and
asked for library cards. When they were turned down, each of them silently took
a seat and began reading.
Learn
how the library commemorated the 80th anniversary of this
historic protest in a free webinar from ALA’s Public Programs Office /
Programming Librarian.
