How do you “mark” the Freedom to Read week? Note I didn’t use the word, “celebrate?” I thank my lucky stars that I have been given the blessing and luxury to read. And write. Anything… (almost).
As a writer and a freedom-loving American citizen, I can hardly believe that we’re in this situation.
Let’s talk about this. No more shusshing. 🤫Unless it’s your favorite librarian. Silence begets censorship.
Regrettably, it’s also Banned Book Week 😥 ~ (October 1-7), an annual event that highlights the value of free and open access to information. And today is the day of action.
How bad is it?
