So, you'd check if I enter the library with a book in my school bag then put the book on a shelf? You'd know if a teacher has an agenda too?

Guess you don't know how devious some can be.

At a more more microscopic level. It is a Republican city with a strong Republican county.

Buda that was telling us parents sneaked the book

This is in fairfax county where the schools actually RETURNED the book to the library

This is a school council arguing that there is no pornography in it and actually returning it to the shelves

Yet buda is here claiming it was sneaked into the library and no school authorized it

Lol. Who knows.

Although I find the book disgusting and I won't be reading such, let alone allow kids to read it, but the author of the book also said that it was never meant for the books to be in school libraries, I wonder how it got there.

Although the author offered some insight:

Evison, the author, never meant for his book to be placed in school libraries, he told The Post in an interview. He was surprised when the American Library Association gave “Lawn Boy” an award in 2019 for its appeal to teens. Evison believes that some librarians who chose the novel did so because of the award — and he says that, if any recommended it to lower- or middle-schoolers, they probably confused it with the children’s book “Lawn Boy,” by Gary Paulsen.

I am suprised the book was given an award as well by the American Library Association.

As usual. Projection from the so called conservatives and their supporters. We all know those that love to groom kids.

If you really want to make a mockery of the Republican party and this thread, I will gladly oblige you.

Yes it was. Racist books too, but what did we know.

I always wondered why there was so much James Hadley Chase, and why people here are not claiming we were being groomed into crime.

Lauren Boebert (Republican- CO) goes after ,"Lift Every Voice and Sing".

After its first recitation in 1900, "Lift Every Voice and Sing" was communally sung within Black communities. It has been featured in 42 different Christian hymnals, and it has also been performed by various African American singers and musicians.

Faux outrage. we all know America has just one National Anthem, but they (GOP) are cool with all the Confederate flags at Republican rallies. You would also think America also has one National flag.

And they wonder why blacks keep voting majorly for anything but Republicans.

Its a sick society. The same Lame Duck about two boys doing orals is not tight. Every book in a library is identified by its ISBN number. Someone should have noticed, well they librarian is part of it.

Alot of the so called Republicans are completely clueless about what CRT even means. An interesting article on faux outrage below:


U.S. parents are attempting to ban books about race in schools. This author experienced it first-hand.

Librarians and educators in the United States are seeing more books by people of colour challenged for their content than in previous years — an issue that author Jerry Craft now knows well.

His debut graphic novel, New Kid, tells the story of a young Black kid from Washington Heights, New York, who feels out of place in his upscale school. The book is acclaimed, winning the 2020 Newbery Medal, the Coretta Scott King Author Award, and the Kirkus Prize.

But last October, just before he was scheduled to speak to students virtually at a school in the Katy Independent School District (ISD) in Texas, a parent expressed concern about the book. The talk was postponed and his book removed from shelves.

The parent, who launched a now-deleted petition that received hundreds of signatures according to NBC News, argued New Kid was promoting critical race theory (CRT) — the idea that racism is systemic and is embedded in the U.S. legal system.

"When I was told that it was banned because it taught critical race theory, I had to Google [the term] to find out exactly what critical race theory is," said Craft in an interview with Day 6 host Peter Armstrong.

"I just wrote about what my experiences are."

Craft, who admits he wasn't a reader as a young student, says his books have engaged children who otherwise have never finished a book.

"I know what those kids are going through, that they don't see themselves in books. So I write the books that I wish I had when I was a kid, so I don't want the kids to miss out," he said.

Ten days after its removal from the Katy ISD, the book was reinstated with a spokesperson saying it contained no inappropriate material and Craft's talk was rescheduled. Katy ISD did not respond to a request for comment on this story.

Like are you seriously asking this question.

It's like asking how the lives of Black Americans has improved since the Jim Crow Era. Improvement is not just something that happens overnight.

Blacks would rather vote for those that give them chances at excelling than those that seek to block them out from being equals.

Left to alot of people on this thread, they would rather that Whites always be at the top of the table than let an equally qualified minority stand a chance at sitting at the mid table, let alone at the top.

No, that's not what CRT is about. CRT is about identifying and eliminating racism that may exist in the society, and not about promoting racism.

You'd need to know how endemic racism is in USA to understand why it must be critically considered.
