“I’m past being angry about school districts banning my book. Now I’m just incredibly sad for the students. If we don’t help young people learn about and confront the painful mistakes America made in the past, how can we ever hope to progress?” – Art Coulson, author of Unstoppable: How Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team Defeated Army
“When you ban a book like Sam! and a collection like Essential Voices, you are not just taking away books, you are silencing communities. – Dani Gabriel, author of Sam!
“People can attempt to hide books like ‘I Am Jazz’ from children, but all these efforts do is punish the kids who need the information most.” – Jessica Herthel, author of I Am Jazz
“FREE PEOPLE DESERVE TO READ FREELY. (Period.)” – Naomi Shihab Nye, author of The Turtle of Oman
But but my vote don’t count… ADOS!
They fixin' to do what was just done by Gov. Reynolds in Iowa.
If a book is banned in one county it can/should/will be banned in ALL STATE COUNTIES!!!
CAC women are behind this, just like the daufgters of the confederacy who went around funding & putting up those statues.
At the Thursday night event hosted by the group Moms for Liberty, Reynolds said under her proposal, educational material removed by any Iowa school district would be required to be removed by every district in the state.

If one school removes a book, all schools should, Iowa Gov. Reynolds says
If one Iowa school decides to remove a book from its library, all Iowa schools would be required to do the same under a proposal floated recently by Gov. Kim
Great news now maybe we could start by
