Restricted Reading

The First Amendment protects our freedom of expression and, by extension, our access to reading material. But in prison, it’s sometimes a different story. Restricted Reading, a new original series of short personal audio narratives, examines access to information in prison and the right to intellectual freedom for the more than 2.2 million people incarcerated in America today. Restricted Reading is produced by Kouvenda Media, with sponsorship from the Freedom to Read Foundation and support from the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom.
