Walk for Books
Join us in Westerville, or start your own satellite walk, for our initial Book Walk! We gather in groups, small and large, to bring awareness and attention to our freedom to read what we desire, teach from the books that we want to teach from and have access to uncensored books in our libraries. We know that for democracy to survive and thrive we need an informed population possessing the skills to creatively and critically think.
"Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance." ~ Laurie Halse Anderson
"Crankish attacks on the freedom to read are common at present. When backed and coordinated by organized groups, they become sinister." ~ Ursula K. Le Guin

Can we talk about school?
In the wake of aggressive pushback to discussions of race and privilege in the classroom, NExT Hub is hosting conversations for educators across the central Ohio area for support and solace. These conversations will be a place of interrogation, collaboration, and support for teachers impacted by the anti-CRT movement. In addition to and connection with this backlash to social justice in schools, everything has changed. School is different. The job is different. Students are different. And we're not talking about it. It's all about survival and getting back to status quo. This is a place to unpack our experiences teaching in a pandemic and to acknowledge our collective trauma as educators working to take care of kids.
These conversations will be on the first Wednesday of each month from 7:30-8:30p. Make what conversations you can, these will be consistently running throughout the school year. All meetings will be on Zoom. The link will be sent to you after you register for the conversation.
