In honor of the 20thanniversary of the American Library Association’s Spectrum Scholarship, we invite librarians of color and allies from the DC metropolitan area to join us for food and conversation on April 4, 2018 from 6-8pm. Busboys & Poets will host our informal gathering to celebrate the legacy of our professional and national diversity champions on the 50th anniversary of the passing of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Tickets are $25 and proceeds will go to the Spectrum Scholarship, the American Library Association’s program which “affirms its commitment to diversity and inclusion by seeking the broadest participation of new generations of racially and ethnically diverse librarians to position ALA to provide leadership in the transformation of libraries and library services.”
Please RSVP here.
