Fighting for Literary Freedom

Obsidian Skull Press, a publisher dedicated to showcasing diverse voices and pushing creative boundaries, recognizes the critical importance of FTRF's mission and actively supports their efforts. They understand that a vibrant literary landscape relies on the ability of authors to express themselves freely and readers to access a wide range of perspectives. By publishing both established and emerging voices, Obsidian Skull Press contributes to that vibrancy and actively defies censorship by amplifying marginalized stories and viewpoints.

Note: Obsidian Skull Press is not affiliated with nor sponsored by the Freedom to Read Foundation. We simply believe in their cause and support their mission wholeheartedly.

FTRF's work is vital in a climate where challenges to books, particularly those addressing diverse and marginalized voices, are on the rise. They provide crucial support to libraries facing pressure from individuals or groups seeking to remove certain materials from circulation. This support includes legal counsel, guidance on developing robust collection development policies, and resources to educate the public about the importance of intellectual freedom. By actively challenging censorship efforts in court, FTRF sets legal precedents that protect the right to read for generations to come.

Join us as we reinforce our commitment to fostering a diverse and accessible literary landscape, ensuring that all voices have the opportunity to be heard and that readers retain the freedom to choose what they read.
