A Book Discussion of Malcolm X Wednesday, May 26th

Join us as we brainstorm ways we can create change in our community while we discuss the Walter Dean Myers biography: "Malcolm X: By Any Means Necessary." This discussion will take place outdoors at Crystal Lake in McCutcheon Park, so we encourage you to bring a blanket or lawn chair. Date: Wednesday, May 26, 2021 Time:5:30pm - 6:30pm

This program is designed for young people ages 10 and up.
Registration is required and will close one day before the event begins (on 5/25/21). We have a limited number of free books (to keep!) which will need to be picked up at the Russell Library prior to the online event.
If you sign up for a free book, after you register a librarian will email you to confirm it is ready for you to pick up! After you hear from us you can:

1. Pick your book up during library operating hours (Monday-Saturday: 9-5pm) or
2. Call us at 860-347-2528 and set up a curbside appointment!

The audio book is a part of our online collection and is available through the Libby app: https://lion.overdrive.com/media/1026921

If you have any questions, please contact us at kidsdept@russelllibrary.org
This book discussion is sponsored by CT Humanities and presented in collaboration with the Middletown Youth Services Bureau.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions and to ensure everyone's safety we request that all families follow our Outdoor event guidelines:

1. Masks must be worn by children over age 2 and adults at all times.
2. We ask that you stay 6 feet away from other families for your safety, as well as the safety of others.
3. If any member of your household is not feeling well, has a fever, or is quarantining, we ask that you and your family stay home.
