About this Event
Join us for a free pre-release screening of the Banned Together documentary at Tattered Cover Colfax on October 15th at 5:30 PM.
We will watch the film together and open the room up to conversation and questions. Join us for an educational and inspirational evening as we continue the conversation around freedom of speech and the right to read.
A diverse cast of visionary teenagers, intriguing characters, stirring public protests, private threats, criminal charges, and profanity-laced school board meetings: this is the world of the explosive new feature documentary, Banned Together.
Banned Together pulls back the curtain on two of the most controversial issues in America today: book bans and curriculum censorship in public schools.
Banned Together follows three young women during their senior year of high school as they fight hostile community members and school board officials to reinstate these banned books. We witness their evolution from local to national activists as they advocate at school board meetings, sit down with national politicians, famous authors and constitutional scholars, and ultimately, speak on stage at the Right to Read Rally during the American Library Association’s annual conference in Chicago.
As we follow their activist journey, Banned Together shines a light on the radical political forces who are vying for control of public education and the nationwide resistance to their efforts.
