Singer P!nk will give away banned books at 2 Florida concerts
Hitmaker P!nk, who will play Orlando this weekend, has teamed with PEN America to donate banned books in South Florida.
Hitmaker P!nk has teamed with free-speech advocates PEN America and will distribute banned books at her first couple of concert stops in Florida this week.
P!nk, known for chart-topping hits such as “Raise Your Glass,” “Get This Party Started” and “So What,” kicks off the Florida leg of her current tour in Miami on Tuesday, with a performance in Sunrise on Wednesday before arriving in Orlando for a pair of concerts Saturday and Sunday.
At her South Florida stops, the singer announced Monday, 2,000 copies of four books that have been banned by various public schools will be given away in partnership with PEN America and Books & Books, a bookseller founded in 1982 by Miami Beach native Mitchell Kaplan.

I wonder why this book is banned
I tracked this when it first happened and the answer seems to be "nobody knows". Moms for liberty denied advocating for it's ban, and it was later removed from the list of books. Girls Who Code, the organization, supports reproductive freedom and trans rights and most speculation pointed to that as the reason for the ban, but no concrete reasoning ever surfaced.
Cool cool cool 🙃
the list is fake
