The idea of putting age ratings/warnings on books might seem common sense, but it’s actually a means by which folks are trying to chip away at the freedoms and liberties we all cherish. Bills like this have been introduced in at least TX, OK and VAhttps://t.co/fyguiJAM84

Something we who care about anti-censorship need to keep emphasizing that book bans are driving kids away from libraries and books. This is crucial info and a vital talking point to counter the AtwoodKing bullshit: https://t.co/d1DXmvQcTM

great @DWaldstreicher on ron desantis’ vision of american history. “For DeSantis, Black people telling a different story about the American past is a threat to his entire worldview. It isn’t an academic disagreement; it’s basic to his politics.” https://t.co/hrBUizQyBQ
