Book Riot’s book censorship expert, Kelly Jensen, writes the following in “How to Explain Book Bans to Those Who Want to Understand”:Although there is a basic primer on how to fight book bans and censorship in 2024, distilled into easy-to-do, vital tasks following nearly four years of nonstop coverage on book bans, that kind of guide does not provide clear talking points for engaging in conversations about book banning with those who are unaware or completely new to the discussion. This is that 101 guide. You can use it in conjunction with this more robust and detailed guide to the myths about book banning that keep being repeated. Here are several talking points you can and should use with the people in your life who may otherwise not understand the complexity and seriousness of book bans happening in school and public libraries.
