Pink is joining the fight against book banning. In collaboration with PEN America and Florida bookseller Books & Books, the Grammy-winning pop musician is giving away 2,000 challenged books at her concerts in Miami and Sunrise Florida this week.
The books, which have appeared in PEN America's Index of Banned Books, include Beloved by Toni Morrison, Amanda Gorman's The Hill We Climb, Girls Who Code by Reshma Saujani and Todd Parr's The Family Book.
According to PEN America's latest research, Florida surpassed Texas over the past academic year: There are more books banned in public school classrooms and libraries in the Sunshine State than any other state in the union.
