About

In honor of Banned Books Week, we’re celebrating diverse literature. The United States is currently seeing a vicious wave of book bans, most of which target texts dealing with LGBTQ+ or BIPOC characters and themes. Featuring founding members of the Banned Books Network Münster, this event will explore the phenomenon of book banning in the U.S. context and spark conversation about how to fight back.
