Visit Seattle - Seattle Bookmarked | Banned Edition | Brave Face
The American Library Association reported a record-breaking number of attempts to ban books in 2023, with most “written by or about members of the LGBTQ+ community and people of color.” As a UNESCO City of Literature, Seattle embraces intellectual freedom and celebrates—rather than censors—diverse voices.
In Seattle Bookmarked: Banned Edition, accomplished Seattleites read excerpts from books by Seattle authors that have been challenged, banned or censored somewhere in the United States.
In this episode, author and LGBTQIA activist Dan Savage reads an excerpt from Brave Face by Shaun David Hutchinson.
