The Who Knew singer, who is currently on her Trustfall tour, said on Instagram that she will donate books to the crowd while performing in Miami later this week, to take a stand against some schools in the state that have prevented certain books with themes of sexuality, gender identity and race from being accessible in their libraries. Pink said the move as "confusing, infuriating and censorship", before stating via the campaign group, Pen America, that she isn't prepared to stand by and see books being banned; she added that no one should want to see progress for equality being reversed.
