Authors Against Banned Books panel on censorship

As part of the EveryLibrary Live! Banned Books Week series of virtual programs, fellow authors Shana Youngdahl, Michael Leali, and had a brief chat about censorship with Drinks in the Library's Gigi Howard.


We touched on what you can do to speak up for the freedom to read, in only seconds, from the comfort of your home/office/car/favorite coffee shop/local school board meeting.


For an author, a banned book is not a sales boost or badge of honor.

For a child, a banned book is not no big deal. It's a barrier to what could truly be a life-saving collection of words.
