Where does each candidate stand on banning books in school libraries?
Probably depends on the books being banned. If it’s Genderqueer, Tha Hate U Give, or My Anti-Racist Baby, it’s banning books and fundamentally sabotages the education system and all First Amendment rights (even though all these books are widely available through B&N or Amazon).
If it’s Huck Finn, Johnny the Walrus, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Merchant of Venice, or various “problematic” Dr. Seuss books…crickets.
If a school doesn’t feel certain books are an appropriate part of the curriculum, that’s fine, whether left wing or right wing. If parents disagree with these choices, they can participate in the political practice to get school board members and principals who better align with the values and mores in the district. Making the books impossible to acquire outside of the black market–that is banning.
