  • Ideas for Celebrating Banned Books Week
    Ideas for Celebrating Banned Books Week Banned Books Week is an annual national event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. (The 2015 celebration will be held from September 27 – October 3, 2015.) Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the dangers of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted banning of books throughout the United States. The ideas below can be used to celebrate Banned Books Week, or integrated throughout the school year to ensure student understanding of the freedom to read. (For more information about Banned Books Week, go to http://www.bannedbooksweek.org/) For lesson plans on teaching about banned books, related themes, and numerous additional topics, visit the Carolina K-12’s (www.carolinak12.org) Database of K-12 Resources at: k12database.unc.edu Creation of this curriculum was funded by the Freedom to Read Foundation’s Judith F. Krug Memorial Fund. For more information about the Freedom to Read Foundation, go to http://www.ftrf.org/. Banned Books Trading Cards Each year, the Chapel Hill Public Library celebrates Banned Books Week by hosting an art contest in which local artists submit small scale (trading card size) works of art inspired by a banned/challenged book or author. The cards contain interpretive artwork on the front and the artist’s statement and information about the highlighted book and/or author on the back. • Utilize the cards as discussion pieces for learning about the freedom to read: Provide

She performed a lot of concerts and festivals such as the concert in Agha khan museum in 2016 in Toronto , concerts with Kiya Tabassian in Halifax and Montreal, and Tirgan festival in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2021 in Toronto. Fariba opened a Canadian branch of Avaye Mehr music and art school where she continues to teach. Raphael Weinroth-Browne: Canadian cellist and composer Raphael Weinroth- Browne has forged a uniQue career and international reputation as a result of his musical creativity and versatility. Not confined to a single genre or project, his musical activities encompass a multitude of styles and combine influences from contemporary classical, Middle Eastern, and progressive metal music. His groundbreaking duo, The Visit, has played major festivals such as Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany), 21C (Canada), and the Cello Biennale Amsterdam (Netherlands). As one half of East-meets-West ensemble Kamancello, he composed “Convergence Suite,” a double concerto which the duo performed with the Windsor Symphony Orchestra to a sold out audience. Raphael's cello is featured prominently on the latest two albums from Norwegian progressive metal band Leprous; he has played over 150 shows with them in Europe, North America, and the Middle East. Raphael has played on over 100 studio albums including the Juno Award-winning Woods 5: Grey Skies & Electric Light (Woods of Ypres) and Juno-nominated UpfRONt (Ron Davis’ SymphRONica) - both of which feature his own compositions/arrangements - as well as the Juno-nominated Ayre Live (Miriam Khalil & Against The Grain Ensemble).

  • College and Research Libraries
    The Library as a Marketplace of Ideas Ronald J. Heckart Since the late 1930s, intellectual freedom has been a central theme in the professional ethics of librarians. From it has come powerful and inspiring rhetoric, but also confusion and controversy. This paper traces librarianship's notions of intellectual freedom to a widely analyzed concept in law and political science known as the marketplace of ideas, and finds that taking this broad theoretical view of intellectual freedom offers some useful insights into its strengths and weaknesses as an ethical cornerstone of the profession. ntellectual freedom is a com­ So ingrained and self-evident is this pelling theme in the profes­ theme that relatively few librarians have sional ethics of librarians.

  • Racism and “Freedom of Speech”: Framing the Issues
    Al Kagan Editorial Racism and “Freedom of Speech”: Framing the Issues The production and distribution of the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom’s 1977 film was one of the most controversial and divisive issues in ALA history. The Speaker: A Film About Freedom was introduced at the 1977 ALA Annual Conference in Detroit, and was revived on June 30th, 2014, for a program in Las Vegas titled, “Speaking about ‘The Speaker.’” ALA Council’s Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) developed the program, which was cosponsored by the Freedom to Read Foundation (FTRF), the Library History Round Table and the ALA Black Caucus (BCALA). 4 Some background is necessary for context. This professionally made 42- minute color film was sponsored by the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom in 1977 and made in virtual secret without oversight by the ALA Executive Board or even most of the Intellectual Freedom Committee members. In fact, requests for information about the film, for copies of the script from members of these two bodies were repeatedly rebuffed. Judith Krug (now deceased), Director of the Office for Intellectual Freedom, was in charge with coordination from a two- member IFC subcommittee and ALA Executive Director Robert Wedgeworth. The film was made by a New York production company, and was envisioned by Krug as an exploration of the First Amendment in contemporary society. The film’s plot is a fictionalized account of real events. A high school invites a famous scientist (based on physicist and Nobel prizewinner William Shockley) to speak on his research claiming that black people are genetically Al Kagan is Professor of Library Administration and African Studies Bibliographer Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

In addition to its daily activities, it podcasts weekly on library issues. Unwittingly, but justifiably, it mocked the American Library Association's [ALA] former de facto leader in the very publication dedicated to that leader. The most recent podcast was "dedicated to recently departed freedom crusader Judith Krug." See "LISTen: An LISNews.org Podcast -- Episode #68," by Stephen Michael Kellat, LISNews, 19 April 2009. Judith Krug was the de facto leader of the ALA for about 40 years. Thanks in part to her ACLU heritage, she single-handedly changed libraries so they no longer protect children from inappropriate material like they used to. For example, she alone created "Banned Books Week," ostensibly to decry censorship, even though no books have been banned in the USA for half a century and it is nearly impossible to do so now for reasons that have nothing to do with the ALA.

  • Freedom to Read Foundation
    2018–2019 ALA CD#22 2019 ALA Midwinter Meeting Freedom to Read Foundation REPORT TO COUNCIL 2019 Midwinter Meeting — Seattle, Washington As President of the Freedom to Read Foundation, it is my privilege to report on the Foundation’s activities since the 2018 Annual Conference: LITIGATION This fall, the Freedom to Read Foundation agreed to participate as an amicus curiae in two new lawsuits raising important First Amendment issues. The first lawsuit, Ex Parte Jones, challenges a criminal statute enacted by the Texas legislature that purports to address “revenge porn.” The statute bars disclosure of nude images without the consent of the person depicted in the image. However, the law is written so broadly that it could be used to prosecute the distribution of images that are artistic, newsworthy or educational, such as the image of Phan Thi Kim Phuc, the “Napalm Girl” from the Vietnam War. Under the current version of the law, a librarian who loans out a book containing the image of Ms. Phuc without obtaining her written permission could be arrested and prosecuted in criminal court. The plaintiffs in the lawsuit have challenged the law on the grounds that it is overly broad and would ban First Amendment protected materials. The Texas intermediate appellate court ruling on the case agreed with the plaintiffs, and issued a decision finding the law unconstitutional. That decision is now on appeal before the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. FTRF has joined an amicus brief with the Media Coalition, American Booksellers Association, Association of Alternative Newsmedia, Association of American Publishers and the National Press Photographers Association to argue that the statute does not meet the strict scrutiny standard established by the Supreme Court, because it makes no exception for materials that are newsworthy, historic, artistic or educational and does not have an intent or knowledge requirement.
