Since 2021, dozens of states have moved to introduce and pass classroom censorship bills that restrict students and teachers from discussing race, gender, and sexual orientation in public schools. At the same time, politicians and school boards are making moves to ban books 鈥� predominately those by Black and LGBTQ authors 鈥� from public schools and libraries.
Imagine not being able to freely talk about our country鈥檚 history of slavery, or not being able to access books from your public library such as Toni Morrison鈥檚 鈥淏eloved鈥� or Maia Kobabe鈥檚 鈥淕ender Queer鈥� that speak to issues related to race, gender, and sexuality that impact our daily lives. This is exactly what state lawmakers across the country are trying to make happen.
