Library Group Uses Socks to Protest Book Bans
Original: Book Bans Aren't Cute. These Socks Are.
EveryLibrary, a US library advocacy organization, is running a campaign pairing anti-book-ban messaging with novelty socks. The stunt aims to draw attention to rising attempts to remove books from school and public libraries across the United States, using merchandise to raise funds and awareness while calling the trend of censorship anything but harmless.
Why now: Book bans in US schools and libraries remain a contested political issue, and campaigns with a playful angle attract attention and support.
