🍻 Welcome to October meeting of Banned Books and Beer hosted by JCDP and the YDJC!📣 This is our last official Banned Books Meeting for the calendar year due to the holidays! We are so thankful for all of y'all who have come and we hope you can make this one! Stay tuned for other updates for the break, and don't worry - we will be back in 2026!
👀 Please excuse our new design for this month - FB wouldn't approve this flyer! 🤔
📚 If you like to read, drink beer, or both, then this Banned Book Club is for you! Each month, the group will decide on a banned book to read and get together at a local brewery downtown to discuss the book, discuss life, or just have a good time. There is no pressure (fellow neurodivergent friends, we're talking to you!).
📅 Our October meeting will be held October 29th at 6pm - 7:30pm EST -- at Innovation Station in Dillsboro!
📖 October's book, selected by popular vote, will be "Slaughterhouse Five" by Kurt Vonnegut. Kurt Vonnegut’s masterpiece, Slaughterhouse-Five is “a desperate, painfully honest attempt to confront the monstrous crimes of the twentieth century.”
🙄 Slaughterhouse-Five is frequently challenged and banned for its use of vulgar language, sexual content, and graphic depiction of violence related to war, which critics have deemed immoral and unpatriotic. The book has been targeted by groups citing reasons such as "obscenity," "un-Godliness," and a negative portrayal of war, leading to its removal from school libraries and required reading lists in some communities.
