In PA, the state Supreme Court race will be extremely influential for book bans/challenges that come up. So will many other downballot races. Please, PLEASE show up to vote.
The election you should be focusing on takes place on Tuesday. You can probably vote for the school board, the library board, maybe sheriff, local officials and offices that shape your community. Do you have a plan to vote?

It was in fact a term white people used for themselves to describe like a southern midwest farmer person and was widely used, until Malcolm X single handedly in a single radio broadcast turned it into an insult and within a few years its daily use died out and we now have the Atlanta Braves instead

Also the idea of diverse books being something separate is problematic in itself. It skews the meaning of the word diverse.

This is appalling. Scholastic giving the option for schools to opt out of diverse books at book fairs. Diversity and inclusion should be part of education, not erasure and supremacy. Deeply concerning.
Strange to publish books and then help to prevent children from reading them

Scholastic asks, "Do you want to opt out of 'diverse' books at your school's next book fair?" Your participation in white supremacy has never been easier, just uncheck the 'diverse' books box– poof, no problems. 🙄

While Scholastic is a publisher their school book fairs sell cheap editions of books from many different childrens publishers. And in underserved communities are often the only way kids get to buy books.

Elon Musk embraced COVID minimization and misinformation because he wanted his California Tesla factories open.

It was never about individual liberty and free speech. Like other billionaires who also promote COVID misinformation, he just wanted workers generating profit and shareholder value.

This was for pulling out of a grain deal. But when #Israel stops ALL FOOD AND WATER from entering #Gaza, the racist Secretary Antony Blinken and his racist boss Joe Biden don't stay silent. They lead the cheers.

"Palestinians just needed to wait for a peace process": Israel has, quite literally, been poisoning their water burning their farms and salting the earth for 56 years. Theres been no travel in or out of the country for 16 years. They're not even allowed to fish in their own waters.

It appears that our #TikTok account has been restored.

Thanks to everyone who made noise about this. Give it a follow:

tiktok.com/@mondoweiss
Today, our TikTok account was "permanently banned" during our ongoing coverage of the events in Palestine.

Mondoweiss is a news outlet with professional journalists. This is an outrageous attack on press freedom.

We are demanding that our account be reinstated immediately.
