With challenges to First Amendment rights surging at record levels across the country, Baker County Library District is hosting a “Watch Party” on Thursday, Oct 5 at 6:00 PM of a webinar titled “Why Your Voice Matters – Even as Censorship Increases.”

Following the program, Library Director will be available for discussion and questions.

The event will feature Kelly Jensen from Book Riot and John Chrastka from EveryLibrary. Speakers will talk about trends in threats to free expression, the tensions of public libraries serving families with different viewpoints in their community, and citizen efforts to defend vital Constitutional rights.
