Librarians across the U.S. examine how restrictions on library content are shaping communities. When lawmakers seek to review a list of books\, librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S.\, librarians face the impact of uniting against library collection standards that include restrictions on race-related and LGBTQIA+ content. Drawing on historical context\, The Librarians explores the broader implications for education and public life.\nOur afternoon book discussion will meet immediately after to discuss the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Join us for the movie and the book or either. All are welcome.

The hero\, according to Mr. Bradbury\, is “a book burner who suddenly discovers that books are flesh-and-blood ideas and cry out silently when put to the torch.” Today\, when libraries and schools in this country and all over the world are still “burning” certain books\, Fahrenheit 451remains a brilliantly readable and suspenseful work of even greater impact and timeliness.

Exploring and participating in the cultures that have grown up around these drugs while consuming (or\, in the case of caffeine\, trying not to consume) them\, Pollan reckons with the powerful human attraction to psychoactive plants. Why do we go to such great lengths to seek these shifts in consciousness\, and then why do we fence that universal desire with laws and customs and fraught feelings? \nIn this unique blend of history\, science\, and memoir\, as well as participatory journalism\, Pollan examines and experiences these plants from several very different angles and contexts\, and shines a fresh light on a subject that is all too often treated reductively–as a drug\, whether licit or illicit. But that is one of the least interesting things you can say about these plants\, Pollan shows\, for when we take them into our bodies and let them change our minds\, we are engaging with nature in one of the most profound ways we can. Based in part on an essay published almost twenty-five years ago\, this groundbreaking and singular consideration of psychoactive plants\, and our attraction to them through time\, holds up a mirror to our fundamental human needs and aspirations\, the operations of our minds\, and our entanglement with the natural world.
