John, in the first half of the 2022-23 school year, 30% of banned books were related to race or featured characters of color, while more than half of those banned in 2023 focused on LGBTQ+ issues. Book bans are a targeted effort by GOP extremists to whitewash diversity, culture, and history.

Last year marked a new high for book bans. The escalation of book bans is a calculated effort by conservative advocacy groups and state legislators to limit students' access to a broad range of ideas and stories. This movement is not just about removing individual titles; it's an orchestrated campaign to suppress free expression and erase diversity.

Book bans target marginalized groups with misleading rhetoric, labeling educational content as "pornographic" or "indecent" without basis. By creating fear and issuing legal threats and penalties, these book bans have resulted in widespread censorship, impacting a broad range of literature, including works that tackle critical social issues such as violence, abuse, health, and well-being.

The fight against book bans is about defending the right to a comprehensive and inclusive education.

Join us and sign the petition to stop book bans across the country! [[link removed]]
