“Did you know that your School District of #ManateeCounty has banned 44 books including I am Jazz by Jessica Herthel and Jazz Jenings… ? We think this is a horrible choice. We don’t think it’s a mistake because we think they did it on purpose. We think they are scared that these books will brainwash kids into being #LGBTQ. We will show you how this can’t happen so that your children are safe and can still enjoy I am Jazz…“

We know that book bans aren’t limited to schools; they stretch behind bars, too. So this June 11, on International Day of Solidarity with Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners (@june11), along with our friends at @BlueRidgeABC and Tranzmission Prison Project, we’re hosting a Banned Books Back! packaging party to raise funds for freedom fighters inside the prison system. Anyone, near or far, can pledge a donation for every book bundle we pack, starting at 5 cents per bundle. Sign up now at https://bit.ly/j11-pledge! Our co-op is matching $1 per bundle 💸
Community members are invited to join us at 5:30 pm for food, informal conversations, and free literature about June 11. Then, at 6:30 pm, pitch in on the fun of packaging free chapter books for kids in Florida!
Free minds, free them all, until all are free!
