We're heading into that time of the year. No, I'm not talking about Autumn, although happy Mabon. I'm talking about Banned Books Week, which this year is October 5th through 11th. George Takei has been named Honorary Chair this year.
So...
I have the t-shirt that says this that I bought from the ALA. Also, the bumper sticker. Always good to remind people. So take up a banned book this year and read or re-read it. Better yet, fight for the rights of others to read them. So many libraries, schools, librarians, and teachers are facing challenges across the nation right now. I'm really interested in seeing The Librarians for that reason, although I may wait till it streams somewhere if I can.
