Details
The Banned Books Jail by neverbeforedesign is a large metal gate outside the Folsom St. entrance of the American Bookbinders Museum resembling prison bars, jailing books that have been banned in the United States. Included books have been banned for many reasons, including race, feminism, witchcraft and religion, LGBTQIA+, and "un-American" content. Despite the "jail", books are escaping their imprisonment.
