Anyone can help fight censorship, including silent censorship. Support librarians and educators at risk by speaking up when they can't. Report book removals, challenges, and more with this form: ala.org/tools/challengesuppo…
A book is on a library shelf one day, then it’s gone. Any librarian or educator who stands up against those efforts runs the risk of being threatened.
