Firstly 'Pride and Less Prejudice' is just an awesome name. Well done to these celebrities for using their platform for good and fight against the anti #freespeech#BanBookBanswww.advocate.com/art...
Pride and Less Prejudice's auction features items donated by celebrities such as singer Janelle Monáe, actor Daniel Radcliffe, interior designer Bobby Berk, and many more.
"Make being a book banner an unelectable offense, and we still stop seeing candidates use bans as a springboard for their own political relevance." Thank you for this piece, Maggie! #BanBookBans
I wrote a guest post for Book Riot's LITERARY ACTIVISM substack (which is great and you should subscribe) about why this year's Banned Books Week needs to be different. I'd be real grateful if you put your eyeballs on it. It's time to fight back with our whole chest. bookriot.com/a-new-era-fo...
It's well beyond time to do more than put up a book display. It's time for action around Banned Books Week.
The lengths bigots will go to, to show the world just how sportful & hateful they truly are is simply revolting. A hate pastor's plan to instruct his followers to check out #LGBTQ#BanBookBanswww.lgbtqnation.com/...
His plan may actually cause libraries to order more LGBTQ+ books.
Thank you to all the everyday Rhode Islanders, including faith leaders, high school & college students, and librarians, who came out to testify in support of our #FreedomToRead#BanBookBans#RhodeIsland ✨️📚 📖✨️
But just because you don’t want a book read by you or your children, doesn’t mean you or a group of people even, can determine who else can read a book. Seriously. Just stop with this crap and find something more constructive to do with your time. #banbookbans 2/2
Wrote a thing about the importance of libraries. Grab a read...don't cost nuthin. #BookBans #BanBookBans #SaveOurLibraries
or, Book Bans Are For Fascists, Hard Stop
I love the idea of book vending machines in schools -- especially if getting them involves rewards so kids from all financial backgrounds can enjoy them. Also, on principle I have to add "fuck book bans." Reading opens minds. We need more people reading, not less. #BanBookBans #ReadMore #Books
