This is a list of books that have been banned since 2022. The pink highlighted titles have LGBTQ+ content.
An easy way to help fight, is to check the books out! If it is unavailable at a CC Library, ask for staff to put an “item hold” on the title so our book gets the circulation number.

The 5th Circuit’s book-ban ruling threatens decades of First Amendment precedent. We can’t count on the courts to save us. In CC, we’re fighting back - locally and loudly. Join us!

I’ve never hidden my role with CC Dems - it’s public and in the FTRCCC website. Claims that were pushing a radical agenda are false. FTRCCC is non-partisan, opposes censorship from any side, and supports parents guiding their own kids’ reading
