Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

We now have a concentration camp in Florida.
Stop pretending any of this is normal.
If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.
