Peter Scheer quote: If a public school were to remove every book because it contains one word deemed objectionable to some parent, then there would be no books at all in our public libraries.
One parent’s objection shouldn’t empty an entire library. If every “objectionable” word meant removal, shelves would be bare. Censorship never stops at one book. Public schools serve *all* students.

One way to teach visual literacy is to have students read graphic novels, which are a much-maligned genre of books that actually include examples of every genre known in "regular" books, from nonfiction to poetry to fiction

Promotional poster by PEN America urging to contact state legislators to oppose book bans in K-12 schools in Florida, referencing bills HB 1119 and HB 1071. Features an image of Florida in red and a blurred background of bookshelves.
Florida is the number one book banning state in the country. This year, the Florida legislature is proposing two new book banning bills that will drive this crisis to unimaginable heights. But we're not backing down, and neither should you. Read more—and how to push back—at: pen.org/florida-doub...
