so one person can have any book they dont like removed??? time to have every book any republican would approve of. time to fight back against this stupidity.
One of the largest school districts in Pennsylvania has implemented “the strictest” book ban policy in the state after community members, parents, teachers, and even board members got caught up in a rowdy board meeting.
The Central Bucks School District, Pennsylvania’s third-largest school district, passed its new book-removal policy in a 6-3 vote Tuesday evening. The new policy allows just one adult—be it parent, guardian, or community member, whoever—to challenge a book simply “on the basis of appropriateness” and have it eventually entirely removed from district libraries. The board will organize a committee to review the “appropriateness” of a challenged book but it’s unclear what will happen to copies of the book while under review.
