Library)
This organization promotes confronting and understanding your prejudices by
creating a system in which participants ("readers") may "check-out"
individuals for short face-to-face discussions. These individuals represent the
"disabled, the Muslim, the HIV infected or the refugee," and others. The site
provides a history of the organization (started by the Stop the Violence group in
Denmark), details for organizers and potential "living books," and an events
list.
