“I realize ghost boys, thousands of ghost boys, are trying to change the world. That’s why we haven’t said goodbye. Why we aren’t really gone.”

Ghost Boys by Jewell Parker Rhodes

As #bannedbookweek comes to end it's important to remember that the fight for the freedom to read continues.

BANNED BOOK WEEK FINALE:
Reply with one challenged book.
Then steal a recommendation from someone else.
That's the assignment.

Love this list! I know several of the books on this list (see link) that I bought to donate to my library and mayyyy have read before taking them there. #BannedBookWeek

Read the books "the man" calls dangerous. Be a rebel—read Animal Farm and think dangerous thoughts. Short read, big ideas. Read now: wix.to/2t4rylv

Also, since it's the last weekend of #BannedBookWeek, it would be especially poetic to raise a ton of money to elect a governor who opposes book bans in the state that has banned the most books.

If you know of anyone who doesn't think book bans are all that frequent or a big deal--here are the numbers. It is more important than ever to pay attention and push back.

No joke my comic would be part of #bannedbookweek if it was published so make sure to read a banned book and synexn.city if you get the chance. #bannedbook

It’s Banned Book Week- so each day I will post one of my favorite banned books.
Day 7 #bannedbookweek
I first read this book in the early 90s and it has always stuck with me. I never thought that we’d be living it.

Rebel with a book: Read Bag of Bones — the kind of story someone might call dangerous. Dive into the thoughts that challenge the status quo and join the banned-books conversation. Read the post: wix.to/lRcXDeN

My favourite books for #BannedBookWeek

This is some serious bullshit!

I read several of these banned books to my 1st graders as an introduction to a lesson.

Let the teachers, who have received degrees in education, do their job.

#SheShed #BannedBookWeek

#BannedBookWeek I'm grateful to have read all of these books. I too remember some were even assigned and discussed in class. Hmm, it seems teachers understood the importance of diverse reading to develop critical thinking skills.

Post a book cover once a day for a year. Only share books that you think are amazing and others would enjoy reading.

This past Monday, @penamerica.bsky.social released their annual report on US academic book bans. If you're someone who appreciates the freedom to read, the numbers are ... not good.
