SUMMARY:The Hate U Give: Narratives of Change: Book & Film Discussion with FORJ
DESCRIPTION: Stories shape the way we see the world—and each other. Join 
 us for a discussion that brings together middle schoolers\, high 
 schoolers\, and adults to explore the book The Hate U Give by Angie 
 Thomas\, and its movie adaptation. Together\, we’ll reflect\, ask 
 questions\, and have honest conversations about race\, justice\, and 
 community in a discussion facilitated by a Newton Free Library librarian 
 and a racial justice dialogue facilitator from FORJ Newton North High 
 School.\n\n \n\nWe recommend that you either read the book or watch the 
 movie (or both) in advance of this program. You can request a library copy 
 of the book here\, and you can request a copy of the movie here. Don't have 
 time to read the book or watch the movie? You're still welcome to join us 
 to discuss these themes. \n\n \n\nAbout FORJ: Families Organizing for 
 Racial Justice\, FORJ\, is a coalition of families and individuals who 
 believe change starts at home and in our own communities. Our name derives 
 from the verb "forge\," meaning to create or form\, perfectly mirroring 
 what we do: creating and forming a movement committed to realizing lasting 
 change in our city. We offer antiracist programs in the schools and the 
 community that bring people together\, raise awareness\, educate\, and 
 provide skill-building trainings for youth and adults. We share resources\, 
 source programming\, and collaborate with like-minded organizations to 
 offer dynamic partnerships.
