“Any book worth banning is a book worth reading” - Isaac Asimov
Books have been banned in the United States since the 17th century. Book banning is the most widespread form of censorship in the United States, with children’s literature being the primary target. Book bans in schools increased by 28% in the first half of the 2022-23 academic year according to Pen American. Controversy over banned books continues today as a widespread form of global censorship.
