Book Bans In The U.S. Protecting Children or Hiding a Violent History?

Book bans in U.S. public schools and libraries continue to escalate, with PEN America reporting a significant rise in the number of book challenges, particularly those addressing race, gender, and LGBTQ+ themes. The group found hundreds of books targeted for removal or restriction, reflecting broader efforts led by organizations like Moms for Liberty, which pushes to limit access to books they deem inappropriate for children.
