“From school districts to state legislatures, book bans are sparking debate over the scope and definition of free speech. In this conversation, Cindy Hohl, the president of the American Library Association, sets the stage for what’s at stake for our democracy for those who don’t comply. The author Kiese Laymon explains what messages this sends to marginalized groups whose issues are often the basis of the bans. Victoria Scott-Miller, the owner of Liberation Bookstore, shares how the bans have personally affected her.
