Book Club for banned books?

Hi! Does anybody know of any online book clubs for banned books?

Or does anybody wanna…start one?

I’m looking a comfy group to join that doesn’t cost money or conflict with my busy schedule of being sick all the time.

(if this isn’t the right community to post this is, let me know)

The issue is that different places ban different books. To Kill A Mockingbird is considered a banned book but I read it as a part of English class in highschool.
- Good point. “Banned” here is really shorthand for “queer and non-white and non-west-centric and non-abled and non-capitalist perspectives”. I’m feeling eaten alive emotionally by the censorship of the american christian right and looking for a constructive way to counter those feelings.
  
  So.... Is this a correct, more descriptive name for what you mean? " minority POV stories ". Yeah I understand, unfortunately Louisiana decided that those bans were good. Which is insane considering the number of unique groups living in south Louisiana.
Oh no it's the right place! I know some online, I wouldn't mind turning this into a more place to talk about reading specific banned books and posting a monthly banned book for discussion if there's any interest in that kinda thing.
- Interest!
- Would you mind linking me to the clubs you know online that you mentioned?
