Wonderful to have Jo Knowles to speak with students about banned books. Like Jo’s characters, they are quiet and shy. But my students were brave enough to stand and read from books some people don’t want us to read anymore. Powerful day. #banbombsnotbooks
Feeling much #LibraryLove and gratitude toward Curtis Library for hosting a fantastic all-ages afternoon Read-Out for #BannedBooksWeek . 💙📚

I have an interview at Simmons University about my work, book banning and the need for MORE books not less on the topic of identity. School visits show me the difference between a welcoming community and one that casts shame. It breaks my heart every time. simmons.edu/news/spite-boo…
