Donate A Banned Book

 

Good Morning












Donate to your local library.


Though, I'd recommend donating books.
Here's a good one, also recommended by Sixpence


ALL BOYS AREN'T BLUE

By George M. Johnson

The collection of personal essays chronicles their experience as a queer Black person in the United States. Of course, honest descriptions of gender identity, racism and queer love have raised the hackles of those who advocate for banning books with sensitive content and have landed it on this roundup of banned books. Yes, All Boys Aren’t Blue includes graphic content that might not be appropriate for some younger readers, but the book is also an essential work of representation.

Available at Amazon, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble

You do great service to the community and anyone who chooses to read your blog. You cover such a wide range of subject matter concerning sex and general heath issues, but this may be the most serious threat to our American way of life. Never in my wildest imaginings did I think I would bear witness to this atrocious attack on our freedom to read and be read, to seek truth in an ocean of lies, a needless maelstrom created by fear of that truth by a vocal minority who have been brought to this point in our history to do the bidding of a party of ignorant pseudo-citizens. The past rises once again and is willingly repeated by the weak-minded. After reading about the truthful accounts of book-burning by the regimes of the fascist dictators during our last century, and pouring over the pages of "Fahrenheit 451", never did it enter my mind that something like this would happen in my lifetime. And yet, here we are at this critical juncture in defense of literary freedom. How this situation ends, or more troubling continues to proceed, depends on people cognizant of the facts of our history who take the steps to prevent this from gaining any further ground. You and your blog and many others are helping to keep this movement alive. Now is the time for paying attention, activism and action. This sorrowful movement is determined to undermine and usurp our basic freedoms and we cannot allow this to happen. Buy the banned books, return them to your library as often as needed...and above all, get to the polls or vote by mail and remove this current group of misguided legislators from local, state and Federal government. This is solely in our hands and up to us. Be strong!

When I mention about donating books to my library yesterday I forgot to mention they really appreciate books. It saves them from getting them.

And that is quite the collection of upright extremely rigid cocks! The kind I like. Just stand there and go right down there facing up so high. Lovely

Ohhh
Love All Boys Aren't Blue! Just finished reading it, as you know. It's a fab book. And very necessary!

Also, could I have one of the redheads? Damn!

XOXO

It's nice to see guys with morning hard ons...and shooting off a wad. Thanks. I was pleased to find my local library bans no books.

@ Milleson - So very well said. We really are in the fight of our lives to save democracy in this country. I spent 9+ ye4ars in the military fighting for it and never thought I would have to push back against this kind of ignorant upheaval.

@ Maddie - They do appreciate it - it saves them money in the paltry budgets they get.
