Well, the list of books being banned from EPSB is appalling. And it's very likely that an author on this list will get their other works pulled too, especially in the absence of teacher librarians.
There are books on this list that changed my life. This is what the UCP is taking away from kids.

But bravery is contagious.
There are people who think "maybe I should do something" who will look left and will look right, and if they don't see people doing things, they'll sit back down.
Make sure that they see people doing things.
