A handful of people should not be allowed to dictate what the rest of us can read! Organized groups have used fear and disinformation to silence stories and remove books from our libraries, schools, and bookstores. Why can’t they just let books be?

Books are for everyone. Books should be read. Books should be uncensored. Let Books Be. Protect the Freedom to Read.

Join us at The Book Oasis, Saturday October 4th, 1-2pm, to learn more about Banned Books and show your support for the freedom to read.

This, and a list of companion books and resources, are available! For this evening, you are invited to bring any book you’re currently reading or would like to read.
