For the last several years, far too many communities have experienced and endured unprecedented calls for book bans. But in recent months, the pendulum has started to swing in the other direction. When authors, educators, and community activists unite to preserve the right to access information and the truth, and to protect the rights of all children to read widely and diversely, we win.

Presenters Phil Bildner & Ellen Oh will discuss these topics with Samira Ahmed, Tracey Baptiste (WFYP, MFA Writing Faculty), and Dhonielle Clayton. Moderated by Cornelius Minor.
