Well‑Behaved Books Seldom Make History

Well‑Behaved Books Seldom Make History In-Person

Join us for a powerful and timely conversation with author and activist, Sarah Prager, whose acclaimed works -- including Queer, There, and Everywhere and Rainbow Revolutionaries -- have been at the center of recent book bans across the U.S.

Sarah brings a deeply personal perspective to the national censorship crisis, having faced online harassment for creating LGBTQ+ content for young readers. In this talk, she’ll share her journey as a banned author, explore the history of queer book censorship, and dive into the real reasons these stories are challenged today.

Learn about the emotional and societal impact of censorship, a behind-the-scenes look at banned LGBTQ+ books, a brief history of queer book bans, and how you can take action to protect intellectual freedom!
