Book bans are not merely efforts at censorship. They have been a vehicle for boosting the electoral campaigns of candidates sharing the views of the far-right organizations pushing them, @melissagira writes. newrepublic.com/article/1678…

Let’s talk about sex! I had a wonderful conversation with @corysilverberg, sex educator and author of You Know, Sex. Graphic novel format, more emotions than anatomy - the perfect book for pre-teens and parents having trouble having The Talk. 😬🤭🫣
