Walk for Books
We gather in groups, small and large, to bring awareness and attention to our freedom to read what we desire, teach from the books that we want to teach from and have access to uncensored books in our libraries. We know that for democracy to survive and thrive we need an informed population possessing the skills to creatively and critically think.
"Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance." ~ Laurie Halse Anderson
"Crankish attacks on the freedom to read are common at present. When backed and coordinated by organized groups, they become sinister." ~ Ursula K. Le Guin
