MIAMI – Pop celebrity P!nk will give away 2,000 banned books at her South Florida concerts.
The singer is teaming with PEN America, a literary and loose expression advocacy staff, to attract consideration to the guide banning disaster around the nation.
According to PEN America, greater than 3,300 books have been banned all the way through the 2022-23 faculty yr, with Florida banning greater than 1,400.
Pink has performances scheduled at the Kaseya Center in Miami on Tuesday and the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise on Wednesday.
The Banned Bookmobile Tour made a forestall at Books and Books in Coral Gables in October.
More than 1,000 books got away with 10 loose books given away to Miami-Dade educators.
In May 2023, the Miami-Dade faculty district answered to grievance over a call to transport the poem “The Hill We Climb” written via Amanda Gorman, the National Youth Poet Laureate, which was once delivered at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, to a faculty library segment aimed at older readers after a father or mother complained.
