Daily News | A parade against book-banning in Doylestown, as Central Bucks School District targets “sexualized content”
Today, bans, restrictions, and challenges have reached levels not seen in decades, often pushed by conservative parents, school boards, and government leaders who object to what they see as sexual or “woke” content, according to the American Library Association and other groups.
The organization defines a school book ban as an action taken against a book based on its content and as a result of parental or community challenges, administrative decisions, or in response to lawmakers or government officials. Business-owners walked to their front steps to watch, and people in neighborhood pubs paused mid-sip, looking on as the oversized “books” navigated the chairs and tables of sidewalk cafes.
“It’s so important for us to be reading books that challenge us, that have characters that are different from us, that have broader views,” she said.
