Convivial "Democrats are now banning books for an unbelievable reason:
Leftists who believe that speech is violence are gaining a foothold within the mainstream of the Democrat Party.
The “speech is violence” mantra has been used as justification by the radical Left to deplatform speakers from college campuses, push for online censorship, and even destroy public property.
Now books are being banned from middle school and high school curricula.
The Burbank Unified School District in Los Angeles recently barred To Kill A Mockingbird, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and others.
From Newsweek:
Until further notice, teachers in the area will not be able to include on their curriculum Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird,” Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” John Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men,” Theodore Taylor’s “The Cay” and Mildred D. Taylor’s “Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.”
Four parents alleged that these books could cause harm to their children, and, in turn, BUSD decided to exclude these novels from its curriculum.
All it took was four leftist parents to complain, and the entire school district buckled.
The Left has learned that people will often bend the knee under the slightest bit of pressure.
Worse yet, the books in question highlight the ills of racial intolerance."
