This is such a great initiative, but it's also deeply sad that a library of banned books is necessary.

About the Dawit Isaak Library

The Dawit Isaak Library is the world’s first library entirely dedicated to freedom of speech. On its shelves and in its digital database are books and information about works that have been banned, burned, or censored, as well as works by writers who have been silenced, threatened, imprisoned, or forced into exile for their words.

9 000 dagar. ”Ett hjärta har slagit en miljard slag och Dawit Isaak sitter fortfarande i fängelse”

9 000 dagar. Under den tiden hinner ett mänskligt hjärta slå knappt en miljard slag. En människa drar över tvåhundra miljoner andetag och jorden hinner färdas över 23 miljarder kilometer genom rymden. Tiden rör sig skoningslöst framåt.

Journalist Dalit Isaac still in jail after 23 years
#Eritrea is the only African country without privately owned media, having shut down its private press in 2001 under the pretext of "national security". There have been no elections in Eritrea since its independence, and President Isaias Afwerki has held power for nearly 31 years.
