Rita Moreno, Andy Cohen, and Margaret Atwood—have already gotten their
T-shirts.

yourself) this special-edition T-shirt. But hurry, you must claim your

For months, MoveOn and LeVar Burton have been at the forefront of fighting
the sharp rise in book bans in libraries and schools across the country.

These bans, pushed by MAGA politicians and far-right political groups like
Moms for Liberty, keep children from learning about themselves and their
own identities, shut down discussions, blot out empathy and understanding,
and conceal accurate American history.^1

That's why, thanks to support from MoveOn members like you, MoveOn
launched a nationwide Banned Bookmobile tour through more than a dozen
states, handing out thousands of banned books—for free—and energizing
voters.^2

Nearly 500,000 MoveOn members have signed our petition calling for an end
to book bans across the U.S.^3

And together, MoveOn and LeVar Burton led nearly 200 authors, artists, and
creative leaders in writing an open letter against book bans.^4

Now, you can join the effort by getting your loved ones (and yourself!) a
special-edition "Read Banned Books" T-shirt as a holiday gift.

Remember, unlike at Amazon and other corporate retailers with harmful
business practices and fat cat execs, at MoveOn your money will go
directly toward our work fighting for justice and a country where everyone
can thrive.

by December 17 to ensure delivery by December 25.

Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Book bans have skyrocketed thanks to
right-wing state laws which have forced teachers to remove books from
their classrooms. In response, MoveOn is launching a "Banned Bookmobile,"
filling it with books that the far right has banned, and driving it around
to hand out those books, for free, in highly trafficked areas that will
attract media attention. To keep the Banned Bookmobile up and running into
2024, we need your help.

Will you chip in to power our critical work?



[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in.
