PEN America reported the removal of the books in Duval County in its report released this past September, Banned in the USA: The Growing Movement to Censor Books in Schools. This collection “features characters representing a variety of ethnicities, religious affiliations, and gender identities,” and includes children’s picture books such as Sulwe by Lupita Nyong’o, Dim Sum for Everyone! by Grace Lin, and Berenstain Bears and the Big Question by Stan and Jan Berenstain. The removed titles were part of the Essential Voices Classroom Libraries Collection, purchased by the district in 2021. PEN America on Tuesday presented a joint letter with We Need Diverse Books and authors and illustrators of 176 books removed from classrooms in Duval County, Florida, in January 2022 for “review.” They have been kept in storage for 10 months with little indication of when they might return to classrooms.
For an update on this case, please visit the Florida Freedom to Read Project. MaUpdate: Since PEN America published this list of book bans in Duval County, Florida, in December, we have received additional information on the precise nature of when, why, and for how long books from the Essential Voices Collection were kept off classroom shelves in 2022. These are some of the books banned in Duval County, Florida.
