The freedom to read is under attack in the United States, restricting students’ freedom to explore words and ideas, and creating a hostile learning environment for young people whose identity is the subject of targeted titles. Yet a 2023 NPR/Ipsos poll found that a majority of Americans oppose such measures. Join Pen America, CT authors Chad Sell and Alan Katz, & “The Book Lady” Pia Ledina for a timely discussion of the legal issues and learn how we can help protect the freedom to read, moderated by Adult Ed chair and author Sarah Darer Littman
