@cdendy76.bsky.socialNext up in #bannedbooks #challengedbooks #challengedpicturebooks for #BannedBooksWeek? No, David! by David Shannon.
Why challenged? Because it features an illustrated bare bottom and supposedly encourages bad behavior.
@cdendy76.bsky.socialFor today's #challengedpicturebooks #bannedbooks #challengedbooks posts to honor #BannedBooksWeek, we start with Water Protectors, published in 2020 in the wake of the Dakota Access Pipeline protests that began in 2014 and escalated in 2016.

@qplnyc.bsky.socialThe best way to fight book banning is to read #BannedBooks!
In honor of #BannedBooksWeek, you can download these 12 great books, which will be available with no waits or checkout limits through Oct. 10, on OverDrive and using @libbyapp.com.
@emanuelxavier.bsky.socialWell, this is awkward. I just found out If Jesus Were Gay & Other Poems was listed among books banned or challenged in Connecticut in 2023.
The book came out in 2010. Nobody told me. 😂
If you’re going to challenge my poetry, at least notify the poet. I would’ve promoted it!
@haveaspine.bsky.socialArgue with it in class, teach it with critique, just don't hide it from the students. 🚫

@author-npenz.bsky.socialTODAY'S N. PENZ SALES PITCH:
Go buy a banned book!
Then read it.
Then recommend it.
Make censorship commercially inconvenient.

@jthume.bsky.socialThe only thing that #bannedbooks did to me was make me smarter about our government.
"People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."

Read and support banned books.

@reverentridge.orgToni Morrison's 'Beloved' remains one of the most challenged books in America, yet its exploration of ancestral grief & historical trauma is unmatched.
Grief isn't just individual. It lingers and moves through generations. 🧵 1/2

Many I see who they were challenging, some I feel like Lebowski. "Uh? Kay?"
