Rainbow Readout
September 16 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Dayton Metro Library supports PRIDE all year long by offering a variety of LGBTQIA+ programs for all ages. This month, the Main Library will host two programs for adults, one a new book club and the other a special guest speaker.
Rainbow Readout, Monday, September 16, 7-8 pm, Main Library, Conference Room 3A: DML’s LGBTQIA+ Services Specialist has pre-selected a non-fiction book they will read ahead of time. Patrons will receive a presentation of that book, its arguments, critiques it has received, and considerations it can teach about life. Questions and conversation will be encouraged. If patrons would like to read the book for better participation, it is Who’s Afraid of Gender? by Judith Butler. Butler is an award-winning, internationally known, non-binary gender theorist. A few copies of this book are available for check out at the Main Library, but it is also available in eBook and Audiobook format through DML’s Libby app.
How Does the City Commission Work?, Tuesday, September 17, 7-8 pm, Main Library, Eichelberger Forum: DML welcomes Dayton City Commissioner Shenise-Turner Sloss for a special informational Q&A session. Geared for the LGBTQIA+ community, patrons will learn how to get involved in their communities, how the Dayton City Commission works, and receive tools on how to make their voices heard to advocate for change at a local level. Need to register to vote? Voter registration will be available at this program.
Registration is not required for these programs. For more information, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.
