BANNED BOOKS WEEK
Along with the usual list, despite hearing about novels such The Handmaid's Tale, This Book Is Gay, The Bluest Eye, All Boys Aren't Blue, and Nineteen Minutes being banned, the most frequently banned book of all time is George Orwell's 1984. The right-wing conservatives have hated this book so much because it depicts much of their agenda.

I usually ask you to help by purchasing one or more books which are on the Banned List.
The right-wing extremist group Moms For Liberty is putting forth and supporting candidates for school boards and library boards across the country. Before you vote in this year's election, do a little research.
We all must
"Understand the assignment."
