Read/Write Library is a Chicago-based organization that aims to showcase the diverse cultural contributions of the city's residents through an extensive collection of books, magazines, comics, zines, and more. By raising the visibility of these documents, they provide communities with access to their own histories, encouraging them to value the stories of their friends, families, and neighbors, and inspiring them to create and participate on their own terms. Through their pop-up libraries, book clubs, field trips, and group outings, Read/Write Library fosters a sense of community engagement and empowerment, challenging the notion that social, emotional, and intellectual control are necessary for public safety, rehabilitation, and justice. Their mission is to rewrite the city's narrative by amplifying the voices and stories of its residents, ultimately creating a more inclusive and vibrant cultural landscape.Generated from the website
