Ideas on Tap “Banned Books: The Student Perspective”

January 19, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

In the last year, school districts and libraries across Mississippi have begun restricting access to books deemed to have mature content. This means students in certain school districts no longer have easy access to a world of literature filled with characters and situations that mirror their own lives. We want to hear the students perspective. Join us January 19, 2023 at Hal & Mal’s from 5:30-7:00pm as MHC host the latest Ideas on Tap series. The panel moderator is Julia James, Education Reporter for Mississippi Today. Panelist include JohnAnna Esters: J-Tech Early College, Marina Goupalava: Madison Central, Adam Maatallah: Madison Central, Tonja Murphy: Community Engagement Coordinator for the Mississippi Book Festival.
