The Banned Books Tour is grounded in research that examines the rise of book bans across the United States, with a focus on works by Black authors and inclusive histories. By identifying affected communities, themes, and policies, the initiative highlights why these stories matter and how access to literature shapes education, identity, and freedom of thought.

The website is designed to amplify voices and stories through clear messaging, inclusive visuals, and accessible content. Thoughtful structure and cultural storytelling guide users through the issue, helping them understand the importance of banned books while encouraging meaningful engagement and awareness.

The Banned Books Tour platform is built to support action. Through educational resources, national partnerships, and community-driven tools, the site empowers individuals and organizations to learn, participate, and advocate for literary freedom. The platform transforms awareness into impact by making information accessible and participation easy.
