Banned Books Club
Last updated on February 02, 2026
As book challenges and classroom censorship bills spread across the country, we’re fighting back in courts, statehouses, communities, and schools and now with our book club, too.
We have a First Amendment Right to read and learn free from censorship and discrimination—and the ACLU is committed to defending that right.
What does it mean to be in the ACLU of North Dakota Banned Books Club?
Any individuals or groups who want to join our Banned Books Club can do so by requesting to join our Facebook group. Each month, we select a title from lists that include:
Most Feared Books in North Dakota: This is a list curated by the ACLU of North Dakota of books formally challenged or banned across the state. The list also includes titles that have been notably identified by lawmakers or citizen activists but may not have faced official challenges.
PEN America’s Banned in the USA lists
ALA’s Top 10 Most Challenged Books list and their archives
On the group's page, we'll post discussion questions to provide opportunities for engagement, whether that's within your own book club or on the page's discussion board. If your book club selects one of the Banned Book Club selections, let us know. We'd love to hear how the discussion goes.
NOTICE
Our Banned Books Club group will only host meaningful and respectful dialogue. We will not tolerate profanity, hate speech, personal attacks, or threats among our group members, and we reserve the right to remove an individual from the group.
