Five Librarians on Defending Democracy, Book Bans, and the Freedom to Read

Five librarians discuss questions of democracy, censorship, libraries, and books. The panelists—Antioch’s Jen Sturge and Miranda Doyle, incoming AASL President Becky Calzada, 2023 Maryland School Librarian of the Year Sheri Anita Massey, and U of Baltimore librarian Allison Jennings-Roche—discuss how librarians can best serve students in the current political reality, the duty to present a wide variety a viewpoints, and best practices in resisting attempts to destroy public libraries entirely. “This is actually the first time that it's been criminalized for librarians and library workers to do their jobs,” says Jennings-Roche. “This is the first time we have ever been under threat of going to jail for providing access to materials.” ––– To learn more about this event and the larger Antioch Works for Democracy initiative, visit the Antioch Works for Democracy libguide [https://libguides.antioch.edu/c.php?g=1392111&p=10429077].

episode From ’64 Freedom Summer to the ’24 Election: Three Antiochians on the Long Fight for Social Justice artwork
From ’64 Freedom Summer to the ’24 Election: Three Antiochians on the Long Fight for Social Justice

For both Judy Richardson and David Goodman, 1964 was a pivotal year. That year, Judy moved to Mississippi to help organize “Freedom Summer,” the famous drive to register Black voters in the heart of the Jim Crow South—work that led her to a career as a civil rights-focused activist, filmmaker, and educator. Meanwhile, 1964 touched David’s life in a more tragic way: during a trip to Mississippi, his brother Andrew and two fellow civil rights activists were murdered by the Ku Klux Klan. David has spent much of the intervening decades working to honor his brother’s memory and fulfill American democracy’s promise through the Andrew Goodman Foundation. In this conversation, moderated by Janet Dewart Bell, Judy and David talk about their experiences, their decades of activist work since, and the lessons that today’s activists can draw on. As the U.S. grapples with the outcome of the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election and what this will mean for civil rights and democracy, this conversation offers hard-won wisdom—and reasons for hope. – – – To learn more about this event and the larger Antioch Works for Democracy initiative, visit the Antioch Works for Democracy libguide [https://libguides.antioch.edu/c.php?g=1392111&p=10432860].

The Role of Black Women in Democracy: A Panel Discussion

Black women have long stood at the crossroads of democracy and liberation. Their voices, advocacy, and resilience have driven progress toward equity and justice, yet the full acknowledgment of their contributions remains elusive. In this wide-ranging conversation, three formidable leaders—Judge Ashleigh Parker, Judge Faye R. Chess, and Cassandra Stokes—come together to share their experiences and wisdom in a conversation moderated by Stephanie Helms Pickett, Antioch’s Vice Chancellor for Equity, Belonging, and Culture. They discuss the challenges and rewards of fighting for our democracy despite facing stereotypes, patriarchy, misogyny, and misogynoir. **** To learn more about this event and the larger Antioch Works for Democracy initiative, visit the Antioch Works for Democracy libguide [https://libguides.antioch.edu/c.php?g=1392111&p=10523852].

Talking With President José Ramos-Horta About Environmental Justice, Peace, Democracy, and Activist Tactics

As we face this century’s challenges—from climate change to democratic backsliding to multinational cooperation—we need new models of leadership. That’s what Antioch alum, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, and President of Timor-Leste José Ramos-Horta says. And he should know. He was one of the leaders of Timor-Leste’s long effort to win freedom from colonization and the right to democratically elect its own government. In this wide-ranging conversation with Abigail Abrash Walton, the Chair of Antioch’s Department of Environmental Studies, Ramos-Horta discusses his country’s still-fragile democracy, the vulnerability of island nations in a time of climate change, the activist tactics he and his countrymen used to gain their freedom, and the need for a new generation of leaders on the world stage. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Visit Antioch’s website to learn more about the Individual Master of Arts [https://www.antioch.edu/academics/education/master-of-arts-humanities/] program that Ramos-Horta graduated from.
