SUMMARY:Rock Your Socks
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by Rocking your Socks! \nOn March 21st every year\, people all over the world come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored socks.

Whether you are an individual\, family\, small business\, large organization\, or school\, you can purchase fun socks from VDSA. You can then distribute them however you like! Here are some fun ideas: \n\nBusinesses can purchase socks to give or sell to their employees to wear and have a fun\, team-building day on March 21st.\nOrganizations and businesses can purchase socks to sell at their location to patients\, customers\, or clients.\nSchools can purchase socks and have their students create a fun contest for which classrooms have the most students wearing fun\, silly socks!\nFamilies can purchase socks to give to their hairdresser\, mechanic\, dentist\, doctor\, neighbors\, etc.\nIndividuals can purchase socks to wear and bring awareness to this awesome day!\n\nThe next step is to wear your socks on 3/21 and be sure to take pictures\, post on social media and tag VDSA!

SUMMARY:Black History Month Film Screening | Current: A Descendant's Journey for Truth
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a preview screening of the documentary film Current: A Descendant’s Journey for Truth followed by a discussion with producer Pam Smith\, director Loria King\, and other film team members. The filmmakers ride the rivers and walk the land that brought enslaved people to the shores of Virginia and the places of their bondage and resistance. As the film explores the legacies of enslavement and what it will take for our country to repair and heal\, it examines why telling the truth about history is important. \nProducer Pam Smith is a historian and genealogist who did research for the film at the Library of Virginia. She is a descendant of Matilda (Lewis) Threlkeld\, the biological granddaughter of Lucy Jefferson Lewis\, sister to Thomas Jefferson\, which makes Matilda the enslaved niece of Thomas Jefferson. This screening features the Virginia portion of the film\, shot in Richmond\, Charlottesville\, and Arlington. It includes commentary by Virginia artists\, teachers\, students\, librarians\, historians\, family history researchers\, faith leaders\, social justice advocates\, and others\, including historian and author Edward Ayers\, genealogist Dr. Shelley Viola Murphy\, and Jenna Owens with the Getting Word African American Oral History Project at Monticello. \nFor more information\, contact Anne McCrery at anne.mccrery@lva.virginia.gov or 804.692.3568. \nThis talk is free and open to the public. Registration is required. Limited free parking is available underneath the Library at 800 East Broad Street.
