This is the story of a group of embattled librarians who, during an unprecedented wave of book banning in Texas, Florida and beyond, join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy. Standing up for what they believe in, these everyday Americans risk everything to uphold the most fundamental of rights. Despite facing harassment, threats, and laws aimed at criminalizing their work, the librarians’ rallying cry for freedom to read is a chilling cautionary tale.
