pride connection - Banned books.mp3

Across the nation, books are being banned. Young people are now faced with the strong possibility of not seeing themselves represented in the fiction they’re reading. On this latest episode of Pride Connection, several avid readers discuss what it was like to see ourselves on the pages of the books we loved, as well as how it felt when literature failed to represent us in an accurate way. We also offer resources for those living in areas where book bans are in place, and discuss ways individuals can stand up for the rights of all of us to read books that make us feel seen.
