About the Event
Books Not Bans builds community around literature and ideas, with an emphasis on LGBT stories. Good books and stories have the power to foster connection, resilience, and empathy.
In their first year, Books Not Bans sent over 1000 books to over 25 organizations in 16 states including youth groups, high schools, rural Pride organizations, bookmobiles in rural areas, universities, drag story hours, youth centers, LGBT centers, queer book clubs, and community centers.
Most of America has no access to queer and banned books. Join us and help us send thousands more to communities around the USA.
