The Time is Now for Us to Sit and Listen

Sharlee Mullins Glen. "The Time is Now for Us to Sit and Listen." Deseret News. June 25, 2020, p. A6. 

One evidence of the striking singularity of this particular moment is the fact that there are currently 206 holds at the small library in Kearns, Utah on the book "White Fragility: Why it's So Hard for White People to Talk about Racism."

 COMMENT

     Library use is cited as evidence of community involvement in #BlackLivesMatter protests.  Demand for library books tracks current events. The library can help by purchasing a few extra copies so that readers can get the book faster.
