  • Forbidden Prose: Who Gets to Decide What We Read?
    Jul 9 2025

    In our pilot episode of Politics, Prose, and Pagodas, Sunny Pu, Sameeha Mohammed, and Ngoc Ho delve into the trend of book bans sweeping across America's school districts and libraries. We dive into how it isn't just about books - it’s about power, identity, and the politics of whose stories are allowed to be told.

    From graphic novels to history texts, Politics, Prose, & Pagodas explores which voices are being silenced, including Asian American authors and storytellers.

    We unpack the history of censorship in Texas, the political motivations driving the today of Texas, and how youth, educators, and communities are fighting back
