In this special episode of the Historical Romance Sampler, we return to the topic of book bans with guest Anne Knight. Anne gives an overview of library defunding happening in her home state of Arkansas and opens up about growing up in a Christian fundamentalist community that censored her reading. Plus, we talk about ways for average people (like you, listeners of this podcast!) to get involved in defending libraries and fighting book bans.
