Donate $27 during Pride Month, get banned book “This Book is Gay”

2 mins read

The Family Research Council, an anti-LGBTQ+ Christian nationalist group that targets LGBTQ+ rights, assisted right-wing parents in Bucks County to implement book bans that got This Book is Gay pulled from their district because it featured LGBTQ+ content.

Republicans in districts around the country followed suit using an age-old trope alleging that teachers could use books to “groom” or “indoctrinate” kids.

Dictators ban books, not democracies. Book bans restrict access to diverse perspectives and threaten to stifle the critical thinking and growth of students.

Turn PA Blue fought back and helped to flip multiple Bucks County school boards to Democratic majorities. They reversed book bans and adopted inclusive school policies!

When we fight back, we win! In honor of Pride Month, chip in $27 or more to defeat right-wing book banners, and we will send you a copy of This Book is Gay.

There is much more work to be done. Pennsylvania ranks near the top for book bans in the US.

Extremist groups like Moms for Liberty have been targeting books that mention LGBTQ+ people.

It is essential to challenge censorship to ensure that education remains a space for exploration and understanding, not a ground for imposing restrictive views.

Will you pitch in $27 or more to help us defend intellectual freedom in our public schools? We will send you This Book is Gay.

Thanks for your support.
