One thing it doesn’t mean is book banning or preventing history classes from being taught because they make individuals "uncomfortable". Parents absolutely have the right to determine what their minor children read or learn. But they don’t have the right to decide for other parents. When I was in school there were certain books in the school library that you couldn’t read unless you had a parent’s note or the librarian had spoken to them. I was able to check out James Baldwin and Catcher In the Rye because my folks okay’d it. Today parents just demand books be arbitrarily pulled so that nobody’s children can read them.
