Grieving families organized a mock funeral for Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s “leadership and integrity” in Brooklyn on Sunday.

Many of those who survived the loss of family members in New York nursing homes during the course of the global coronavirus pandemic gathered for a demonstration in front of Brownstone Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill Health Center on Sunday afternoon. A silver casket was laid open on the sidewalk filled with 6,500 copies of American Crisis, the Democrat governor’s book on “leadership lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic.”
...
Those covers represented the approximate number of nursing home residents lost to the novel coronavirus over the course of 2020. Demonstrators, however, count the number much higher. “My mother-in-law got COVID in an elder-care facility but died in a hospital, [so] her number does not count,’’ Fox & Friends meteorologist Janice Dean told the press.

Banned Books Week is a curious thing to observe in the United States. After all, books are rarely banned in this nation devoted to freedom of expression. But certain titles are effectively disappeared when they’re removed from public libraries and school shelves at the urging of offended individuals and frightened administrators.

The American Library Association dutifully tracks hundreds of little acts of domestic suppression taking place all over the country, and each year it publishes a list: The Top 10 Most Challenged Books. Part lament and part celebration, the list is a call to arms for book lovers, but it’s also an electrocardiogram of our nation’s troubled heart.

Banned Books Week (September 27 - October 3, 2020) is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. Typically held during the last week of September, it spotlights current and historical attempts to censor books in libraries and schools. It brings together the entire book community — librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types — in shared support of the freedom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular.
...
The books featured during Banned Books Week have all been targeted for removal or restriction in libraries and schools. By focusing on efforts across the country to remove or restrict access to books, Banned Books Week draws national attention to the harms of censorship.

Ceiling and cove of the Great Hall at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC

Today is the kickoff to the 20th Library of Congress National Book Festival, and for the first time it will be held entirely online. Nearly 120 authors, including Colson Whitehead, John Grisham, Ann Patchett, Walter Mosley, and Tomi Adeyemi, will appear on virtual stages to discuss the written word from September 25-27.
...
When the festival launched in 2001, authors and participants gathered on the grounds and in the buildings of the Library of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Over the years, as the National Book Festival grew to become one of the most notable US literary events, the festivities expanded to the lawn of the Capitol, then to the National Mall, and in recent years to the Washington Convention Center.

With the festivities occurring virtually this year, we're turning our gaze back to the stately interior of the main building of the Library of Congress, the Thomas Jefferson Building. In this image, we're looking up to the ceiling and cove of its Great Hall. Surrounding the six skylights is decorative aluminum leaf, which was more precious than silver during the 1890s when the building was constructed. When the building opened its doors to the public in 1897 it was said to be the largest library in the world and it remains so today. Its vast holdings are stored in many buildings, including the Thomas Jefferson Building, which was named for the third US president. It was Jefferson's personal 6,000-plus book collection that helped rebuild the Library of Congress' collection after British troops set fire to the original library during the War of 1812.
