Reading banned books isn’t just an act of rebellion; it’s a celebration of our freedom to think, learn, and connect with diverse perspectives. These books often tackle challenging subjects, prompting us to question, reflect, and grow. By delving into them, we uphold the principles of free expression and resist the forces that seek to limit our understanding of the world. When you pick up a banned book, you’re not just reading—you’re standing up for the right to explore, learn, and empathize.
