Location: Club Phoenix Teen Center (120 Cherry St. SE, Vienna, VA 22180)

In Book Rebels, we'll read books that have been banned, challenged, censored, or protested around the world, as well as books that focus on freedom of expression. We'll discuss why the books were challenged and other related issues.

For October, we are reading Beyond Magenta: Transgender Teens Speak Out by Susan Kuklin, the 27th most frequently challenged book in America from 2010 to 2019, in which six different teens open up about the reality of growing up transgender.

Open to teens ages 12-18. No registration necessary. This program meets at the Club Phoenix Teen Center in the Vienna Community Center.
