Communities bring people together. As such, we should provide for ourselves and others to build up our communities. Do volunteer work, donate to local charities, and more to help your community flourish!

“Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes our ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight.” ~Stephen Chbosky

Book bans hurt everyone. We need to stand up to fight these bans everywhere in the world.

“There is nothing inappropriate in the story, and if you replaced one of the men with a woman, no one would complain.” ~Elizabeth Denham

As we have stated, book bans hurt everyone and just because it contains material you may not agree with doesn't make it wrong.
