Shameless plug for a podcast on Curiosity and listening that I just did and mentioned a lot of our Human Library practices of unjudgment and brave questioning without taking offence

At a very special library in Copenhagen, Denmark, the "books" being checked out are actual human beings.
@TheHumanLibrary, founded 26 years ago, offers 30-minute conversations with living books on a wealth of subjects, and is now available in 80 countries (including the United States) and online. CBS News chief medical correspondent @DrLaPook talked with the library's co-founder Ronni Abergel, and checked out three unique books on the topics of schizophrenia, refugees and Greenland.

One of the most innovative libraries I’ve encountered is the @HumanLibraryUK which creates a ‘dialogue room,’ where taboo topics can be discussed openly, without condemnation. A place where people who would otherwise never talk find room for conversation.

Sometimes we need to look back to better understand the present. After rereading this great article from @guardian we are thrilled to see so many of the visions shared 12 years ago are now a reality. #UnjudgeSomeone #Throwback #TheGuardian #HumanLibrary
