More Republicans try to ban books on race, LGBTQ issues. Some want them burned.
It’s fine and good that a novel on queer identity is *available* at a *high school* *library*.
Banning (and burning!) books is never a good look. @NPR npr.org/2021/11/13/105…

Here is a tweet with images deemed most offensive. My sense is that having such a book available in a high school library is in keeping with the sexual awareness of most students that age. And similar content should be available for straight students, too.

I suppose I start from presumption that high school students (95% of whom have access to a smartphone -- pewresearch.org/internet/2018/…) can access sexual materials. To have a librarian who has (hopefully thoughtfully) chosen a book is more educational and developmentally supportive.
Banning books is never a good look — when the right does it or when the left does. And here’s an apt tweet that went viral two days ago.
