SUMMARY:Historical Context & Local Impact
DESCRIPTION:Dayton Metro Library continues celebrating the 70th anniversary of historic Civil Rights court case Brown v. Board of Education with a series of commemorative discussions – the first being Historical Context & Local Impact. This program will be held on Tuesday\, September 10\, from 6-7:30 pm in the Main Library’s Eichelberger Forum. \n  \nIn the early 1950’s\, Reverend Oliver L. Brown\, along with a team of attorneys for the NAACP and 12 other parents\, along with cases from several other states\, filed a suit on behalf of their children against local boards of education for segregating public schools\, which became known as Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka\, Kansas. The Supreme Court eventually ruled that separating children in public schools on the basis of race was in violation of the 14th Amendment\, making the act unconstitutional. \n  \nRev. Brown passed away in 1961 before knowing the impact this case would have on the nation. In May\, Rev. Brown’s daughter\, Cheryl Brown Henderson\, visited DML as part of its Social Justice Speaker Series to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education. DML continues honoring the legacy of Rev. Brown and others involved in this landmark case by hosting this special series. \n  \nHistorical Context & Local Impact will host a panel discussion with guests providing their perspectives\, anecdotes\, and historical insights into the importance of this case in Civil Rights history. Panel guests include Charlotte McGuire\, Ohio State Board of Education Representative\, District 3; Dr. David Lawrence\, Dayton Public Schools Superintendent; and Mattie White\, 1st Vice President NAACP and President of National Council of Negro Women\, Inc. DML’s Karen D. Brame of Special Collections will moderate the conversation. \n  \nThis is a free event for adults\, and registration is not required. For more information\, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.

SUMMARY:Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame
DESCRIPTION:Dayton Metro Library is pleased to host Ferguson Voices: Disrupting the Frame\, a profound exhibit produced by the University of Dayton Human Rights Center that will be on display through Friday\, August 30\, in the Opportunity Space @ St. Clair at the Main Library. \n  \nIn 2014\, after Michael Brown was shot and killed by police\, a 100-day uprising followed in Ferguson\, Missouri. Ferguson Voices features interviews and photographs of twelve individuals who responded to Brown’s death by showing contributions to their community during the protest – acting\, teaching\, repairing\, and advancing the cause of justice. \n  \nInitially created in 2016\, after nine University of Dayton students traveled to Missouri to interview people who were affected by the unrest of 2014\, Ferguson Voices seeks to humanize the individuals who witnessed and shaped the uprising and to show visitors that when communities are faced with difficult moments\, we all have a role to play. \n  \nA companion program hosted by the University of Dayton Human Rights Center will be held in the Opportunity Space @ St. Clair at 6 pm\, on Tuesday\, August 27. It will involve a panel discussion and provide a space for community members to come together and process the recent killing of 16-year-old Brian Moody by Dayton City Police. \n  \nThis discussion will utilize the exhibit to focus attention on police violence and community response and will re-ignite questions about the use of lethal force\, public trust and accountability\, and over-policing and radical discrimination. The announcement of panel guests in attendance will be forthcoming. \n  \nThis is the second time DML has had the honor of hosting Ferguson Voices; it first appeared at the Northwest Branch in 2017. \n  \nFor more information\, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665. \n

SUMMARY:Athletics and Activisms – The Journey of a 1968 Olympic Medalist
DESCRIPTION:Just in time for the 2024 Summer Olympics\, Dayton Metro Library will host Athletics and Activisms – The Journey of a 1968 Olympic Medalist (with John Carlos) as part of its Social Justice Speaker Series. Athletics and Activisms will be held on Thursday\, August 1\, in the Main Library’s Eichelberger Forum\, from 6-7:30 pm. \n  \nDuring the 1968 Olympic Trials\, John Carols beat Tommie Smith’s world record in the 200-meter final by .03 seconds. However\, due to Carlos’s spike formation on his shoes\, the record was never ratified. Carlos would still go on to win a bronze medal in the Mexico City Olympic games. During the ceremony\, Carlos stood beside Smith\, a black-gloved fist raised in the air and shoes removed\, proclaiming his support for racial equality during the Civil Rights Movement. \n  \nJoin John Carlos as he reflects on how standing up for equal rights has shaped him as an athlete and an activist. Adults and teens are welcome. This free event is sponsored by Friends of the Dayton Metro Library. Seating is first come\, first serve\, but additional seating will be available in an overflow room set up with live streaming. \n  \nFor more information\, and to register if required\, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org/SocialJustice or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.
