Banned Books Week 2022 - Bans and Censorship in Prison by Jennifer Wilson https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh en-us 2022-09-21 03:47:07 UTC 2022-09-24 11:15:55 UTC hello@padlet.com jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306105853 2022-09-21 03:53:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306105853 Pen America's Best Practices for E-reader Tablets in Carceral Institutions jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306106873 2022-09-21 03:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306106873 The books banned for incarcerated readers often parallel those being banned in schools and libraries - books by Black authors, books on the history of racism and fights against oppression, and books that tell queer and trans stories. And yet, book bans and censorship in prisons often get left out of the conversation during Banned Books Week. We want to use this opportunity to draw attention to it. Here are some resources we’ve gathered so you can learn more about book bans and censorship in prisons throughout the US, and a few information access projects you can support to help keep reading possible for those incarcerated in your communities. Everyone deserves the freedom to read! jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306111139 2022-09-21 03:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306111139 Read this thread to learn more about Banned Books Week, prison as censorship, and what you can do to help! jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306119152 2022-09-21 04:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306119152 PEN America's series of essays on prison censorship for Banned Books Week 2022 jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306121798 Read on to hear first-hand from incarcerated readers about the impact of book bans and how much reading means to those inside.]]> 2022-09-21 04:09:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306121798 PEN America's "Literature Locked Up: How Prison Book Restriction Policies Constitute the Nation's Largest Book Ban" jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306123354 2022-09-21 04:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306123354 The Cruel Practice of Banning Books Behind Bars jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306126407 2022-09-21 04:14:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306126407 Censorship Behind Bars jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306126956 2022-09-21 04:15:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306126956 A panel discussion on how librarians, community-based groups and people who are incarcerated navigate the many kinds of censorship that take place inside of jails and prisons across the U.S. jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306128420 2022-09-21 04:16:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306128420 jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306129183 2022-09-21 04:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306129183 A formerly incarcerated writer shares what books in prison meant to them: jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306130477 2022-09-21 04:19:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306130477 The cost of "free" prison tablets: jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306130973 2022-09-21 04:19:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306130973 "Free" doesn't always mean free - Mother Jones on the cost of e-readers in prison jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306147382 2022-09-21 04:37:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306147382 Learn about Delaware's e-reader tablet contract: jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306147779 2022-09-21 04:37:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306147779 Prison Library Support Network - Open Collective jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148097 Support a project offering reference by mail to meet the info access needs of incarcerated people throughout the US!]]> 2022-09-21 04:38:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148097 Buy a book from Haymarket this week and support readers inside! jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148363 2022-09-21 04:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148363 Find a books through bars that serves your the incarcerated community in your home state! jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148805 2022-09-21 04:38:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2306148805 “[Prisons] treat books as restricted commodities, a privilege—not a right—less essential than the right to bear arms, but in the eyes of the state, somehow just as dangerous.” jjwilson8 https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2311438872 2022-09-24 10:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jjwilson8/5x7li000rpyehmrh/wish/2311438872
