I have the ability to eat bread and cheese and stare into a fire for basically an unlimited amount of time and for this I think I would have made a good peasant

Reinstalling Confederate statues is … I don’t even have the words. Wait, of course I do.

The statues were not erected for the purpose of preserving history. They were and are messages of white supremacy. Easy to find this information and I’m ashamed of how old I was before I learned it.

This bill will rob my rural community of the only free, secular, public space. Free WiFi, computer help, classes, and yes books. This bill close libraries and hurt rural communities across Texas.

Today I celebrated my Right to Read with the #1 challenged book in the US: All Boys Aren’t Blue by George M. Johnson. I can only assume that challengers haven’t read it or oppose it because it reflects Blackness and LGBTQ+ experiences. This is a tender memoir that belongs in libraries and hearts.

The books they want banned are not porn.

They teach children about their bodies, body autonomy, and how not to get groomed.

They teach children how not to be sexualized by people in positions of power and authority.

Why are those the ones they want banned the most? 🤔🤔🤔

Anybody who doesn’t love books is just suss.
Do you really want some random guy named Bruce deciding what you and your family are allowed to read and costing you millions of dollars in tax money?
