    Banned Voices preserves the stories of authors, editors, and publishers who have experienced censorship or persecution. We strive to be politically neutral, giving a platform for all kinds of thinkers from around the world and across the political spectrum to tell their own personal stories from their own perspectives. We are the official podcast of the Banned Books Museum, a museum in Tallinn, Estonia that preserves and exhibits banned, censored, and burned books from around the world.
