As a North Carolina mom, I am appalled that the legislature is attempting to take such action to limit students access to literature. Access to literature by diverse voices representing different cultures, view points, histories, and tragedies promotes critical-thinking and empathy. Librarians are trained experts in developmental appropriate materials and I strongly encourage parents to be informed about the content of the books your children read, from school libraries or elsewhere, that is where the decision to limit access should be made. Not by political players and interest group funded committees that often request banning based on out of context quotes and misinformation.
Logan ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!Banning books regardless of how bad the ideas in them could be is against free speech along with gives credibility to the book that's banned. Libraries and Museums should be protected at all costs as culture and free ideas are the foundations of being American.
Jesse ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!My kids deserve the chance to read books my wife and I deem appropriate, that includes most of the books that you want banned. Let kids read. If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, right?
Kasey ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!Please, if I don’t want my kids to read certain books, I can address that with them. I DO NOT have the right to make that decision for anyone else. Instead of being scared of exposing children to thought provoking books that encourage them to think, it would be more beneficial to address an issue that definitely harms children -guns.
Jana ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!Most of the bans include the removal of my students' heritage and culture. To remove history and the people who were and still are affected is to wipe away their existence. Everyone's story matters especially if it is history we should make sure will not be repeated. Every Book, its reader! Every book in a library should find a reader, maximizing the use of the library's resources. Libraries should strive to connect every book with its potential reader, ensuring each book is used to its full potential, creating life-long learners.
Jovanna ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!The most important investment a society can make in its people is in the education of the people. We in the U.S. are already some of the most uneducated people in the world. That is not something inherent in us, but something being done to us. This is why we are so easily manipulated by the ruling class.
If we want to achieve our greatest potential, we have to prioritize the education of every person in the nation, the young, the old, and everyone in between.
There's only one, bipartisan class of people that fears an educated working class, and as George Carlin said, you ain't in it. An uneducated population is easy to exploit and easy to control.
We are in a class war, whether we like it or not, and the most valuable tools we have are our education and our solidarity with one another.
Read the books you've been taught to fear, as our youth are doing now, even if they do end up banning them all. Sharpen your mind and your spirit. This rotten U.S. empire is crumbling, and the increasing repression by the state is only a sign of its weakness, never its strength. A great man once said the U.S. empire is a paper tiger. Don't let it scare you into submission.
Samuel ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!Banning books is not going to stop anyone- in fact, especially for teens, it’ll make them even more appealing!
Reading ALL kinds of books teaches thinking, which is definitely needed in these times!
Kathleen ha sostenuto: Stop the Book Bans in North Carolina. Hands Off Our Libraries!Heartstopper changer my life in so many ways as being bullied for being “different” and having the same things that happened with Charlie happen to me from a young age it’s always had a special place in my heart and that it’s okay to be different in your own way.
Dakota ha sostenuto: Save the "Heartstopper" Series, Stop the BanKids having access to books that positively display loving relationships is important and impactful. Denying youth access to literature that contains LGBTQIA+ themes does not stop kids from being queer, it teaches them shame.
Katherine ha sostenuto: Save the "Heartstopper" Series, Stop the BanThis is a coming of age story that belongs in the young adult section. It's so important for teens in the LGBTQ+ community have a chance to see themselves represented in books. Book bans are a slippery slope. What will be banned next?
