Your voice matters, but talking in front of your state legislature can be daunting. As more anti-book legislation is passed, booksellers are in a unique position to advocate for the importance of access to diverse books and stories. This hands-on workshop will help you begin the process of crafting a compelling testimony that can influence state legislative decisions. We’ll discuss the essentials of effective testimony writing and how you can testify in front of your state legislature. You will leave with a starting point for your own testimony to be ready for anti-book legislation in your state.
