When did you first see yourself in a book? Feeling represented and part of a community saves lives. For everyone who comes out today, and for everyone who may not have that opportunity, we see you. We want you to see yourself in our stories. #SapphicsWithTheBanned #NationalComingOutDay

Our video is too long to post here (because we have so many wonderful authors involved!) so please check it out on Instagram or the Facebook page. Listen to our voices, so we can continue to use them. www.instagram.com/reel/DPpMkuo... #SapphicsWithTheBanned #BannedBooksWeek

They are trying to silence us, but we keep writing. Our history won’t be erased, our lives won’t be forgotten, our love will not be stopped. #SapphicsWithTheBanned #BannedBooksWeek

You can make a difference and stand up to book bans of queer literature. Read a banned book, or request it from your library. Read queer books at risk of being banned, talk about them, review them. 1/2

The human, and queer, experience includes all abilities and neurotypes. The drive to silence disabled voices is intersectional with the drive to silence queer voices. 1/2 #SapphicsWithTheBanned #BannedBooksWeek

“LGBTQ+ BIPOC stories are so important because they help share real,lived experiences that build understanding and empathy. When we read about other peoples lives, their challenges, joys, and perspectives, it becomes so much harder to see them as “other.” 1/3

For many trans people, the first positive representation of people like them they will ever encounter is in books. These stories are vital because they tell trans people, and especially trans youth, that they belong, that they are special, and that they have so much to hope for. 1/2

If our stories weren’t powerful, they wouldn’t be banning them. Queer books save lives. #SapphicsWithTheBanned #BannedBooksWeek

These books with LGBTQ+ characters have already been banned in many places. By banning the experiences of others, no one grows. Read about the experiences of others. Practice empathy. It’s only in coming together and learning from each other that we grow. #SapphicsWithTheBanned #BannedBooksWeek
