I’m so sorry, @TheDannyRamadan, that you and other queer authors need to go through this. And that there are bigots out there who want to make sure queer kids and their families don’t see themselves represented in books. So sad.
I’m so sorry, @TheDannyRamadan, that you and other queer authors need to go through this. And that there are bigots out there who want to make sure queer kids and their families don’t see themselves represented in books. So sad.
A leaked memo shows that a Waterloo School Board intends to restrict students’ access to four LGBTQ2S+ books. “This is how homophobia works. It’s just plain and simple,” says @TheDannyRamadan, the author of one of those books. @emmakbainbridge reports: xtramagazine.com/power/politics…
I'm With The Banned! A thread about #BookBans: 🧵
Part of ongoing attacks @Sflecce @fordnation & @samoosterhoff are making on LGBTQ2S+ kids-I included Salma Writes a Book by @TheDannyRamadan in my latest column in @globebooks celebrating @ireadcanadian-wellwritten & extremely sensitive books by authors,illustrators & publishers

I always will support the freedom to read, for children to have access to inclusive literature that represents the diversity in our communities. I stand with the authors and publishers, and have turned down planned visits at this school board until the decision is reversed.

An Open Letter to @ForestofReading about the issue of shadow banning. My book, The Mystery of the Painted Fan of #TheNguyenKids series, is affected. Are you a writer, illustrator, librarian or an educator? There’s a link for you to add your name! 🙏🏼 dannyramadan.com/statement-on-b…
TWUC is deeply concerned about the apparent shadow-banning of LGBTQIA2S+ books shortlisted for the @ForestofReading Awards. According to a memo from the @WCDSBNewswire, significant access restrictions have been placed by the WCDSB on Children's & YA books. bit.ly/4763Rlw
Two huge highlights for me this wknd at the #SunshineCoast writers fest has been hearing from and meeting @TheDannyRamadan and @TaraJMcGuire I can’t wait to dive into these books. Also hit up the Sechelt library book sale, and a couple little free libraries ❤️
This is Marion. Marion doesn’t understand that rating a book one star requires you to finish it. Don’t be like Marion.
"...The pressure on authors to provide work for free is relentless. We need courts and lawmakers to draw much brighter lines of protection.” Full statement ➡️ bit.ly/3QJWOte #InternetArchive #FixCopyright @internetarchive 3/3
“This ruling is a mixed blessing,” noted @TheDannyRamadan, Chair of TWUC. “While it provides a solution to the immediate problem created by the Internet Archive, it is not as strong an endorsement of authors’ rights as we require in the current climate..." 2/3
Internet Archive Settlement Protects Market for Existing Ebooks. This judgment, while still subject to appeal if IA chooses to continue in the courts, should provide robust protection for the ebook marketplace. Read our full statement: bit.ly/3QJWOte 1/3
This is the difference between adopting a child and adopting a dog. If I told my child to “stop being a little fuck” when he is being fussy about food, I would be arrested.
SALMA WRITES A BOOK, the wonderful new instalment in the SALMA series by @TheDannyRamadan , receives a lovely review from @KirkusReviews , calling the book, "An affirming tale of family and acceptance." Full review: bit.ly/3qzB88B
