AWP Conference: Black Thought under Attack

Participants: Sabrina Adams, Cynthia Dillard, Fatima Shaik

Across the country, Black authors and academics are being silenced by book bans. Join us as we examine the impact of these censorious challenges on authors, readers, and communities nationwide. Featuring Black children’s and young adult authors, as well as academics and poets, whose own works have been censored, this conversation examines what we as readers and writers can do to end the censorship of the next generation of Black writers, teachers, journalists, and activists.
