Film Screening : To Be Destroyed

Drop in to watch a 30 minute documentary to celebrate the freedom to read during Banned Books Week. 

TO BE DESTROYED follows author Dave Eggers as he meets with students and teachers in the Rapid City, SD school district where his novel, The Circle, was pulled from shelves along with works by Alison Bechdel, Stephen Chbosky, Bernardine Evaristo, and Imbolo Mbue. Through footage of heated school board meetings, community rallies and interviews with locals, we learn how these books were designated "to be destroyed."

This is an in-person film screening at the GTU Library in Seminar B. The film is only 30 minutes long, drop in anytime during the hour. All are welcome and no reservation is required. Questions? Email Stephanie.
