SUMMARY:MoveOn.org Banned Bookmobile Event (10/18/23)
DESCRIPTION:Come Get Free Banned Books from MoveOn.org!\nJoin us on Wednesday\, October 18\, from 4:00-6:30pm\, at the Free Speech Wall (605 E Main Street on the Downtown Mall) to meet up with (and get free banned books from!!) the MoveOn Banned Bookmobile and hear from featured speakers including award-winning local author Jocelyn Nicole Johnson (“My Monticello”) and a variety of officeholders and candidates. \nIt’s fine to drop by to catch the event\, but helpful to sign up here with MoveOn. \nThe Banned Bookmobile is on a national tour to highlight the terribly frightening and undemocratic attempts by extremist Republicans to ban books in schools and libraries nationwide; per WVTF and the Virginia Education Association\, there have been 400 attempted book bans in Virginia this year as of September\, and one public library almost closed due to efforts to ban LGBTQ content (but they fought and won that battle!). \nNot available for sale at the event\, but Actor Levar Burton and MoveOn Political Action collaboratively released in early October a new original “Read Banned Books” T-shirt for National Banned Book Week in support of this campaign\,. The limited-edition shirt features the likeness of the lifetime literacy champion LeVar Burton (long-time host of the PBS “Reading Rainbow” show) and can be purchased here. \nNancy Damon is organizing the event (thank you Nancy!). If you’d like to be a speaker\, please contact her at nancycdamon@gmail.com.
