“The freedom to read is under attack in this country...the coordinated censorship efforts we've seen on school libraries are now increasingly targeting public libraries.” Join @JudyBlume and NYPL this #BannedBooksWeek to #UniteAgainstBookBans! on.nypl.org/3RZTefx

Starting this #BannedBooksWeek as part of our Teen Banned Book Club, NYPL is offering free, nationwide access to titles that have been the subject of bans—no NYPL library card required! Get ‘Each of Us a Desert’ by Mark Oshiro - JASMINE IS HAUNTED out now! now! on.nypl.org/3Q0Lo3N #UniteAgainstBookBans

"Libraries are a sanctuary and a safe space for exploring identity, so banning libraries and books would in turn ban people’s ability to explore their own identities. We’re not getting with that program anytime soon." Thank you, Da'Taeveyon! 🙌💯

I just need to say this because it doesn’t seem like we’re getting it: There’s something deeply wrong with a multiracial society that is proudly & loudly opposing and shuttering offices working towards equity and diversity. Explicit anti-Blackness is being once again normalized.

I love seeing VP Harris and Tim Walz together, but these awkward hand grab-slap-shake-daps need to stop. Their handoffs need to be as flawlessly coordinated as everything else they do.
