Going Kindly where no one has gone before, until now! Trek Long Island is a new Star Trek themed convention hosted by the Library for the Kind . The Library for the Kind promotes books and resources that celebrate diversity, inclusion, gender equality, LGBTQ+ and kindness. The organization is run by, you guessed it, librarians! My hope for this convention is to share how Star Trek has celebrated diversity and inclusion since it was gifted to the world in 1966! What can you expect to see at L.I. Trek? Anything spanning from in-depth discussions about TOS, Star Trek’s influence on Modern Day, Autism in Space, Gender on the Enterprise and more! I will be reaching out to celebrity guests that share this view of kindness too!
