Beaches-East York: be sure to contact the branch manager, Jennifer Sloane at 416-393-7649 or [email protected] to convey your disappointment that she caved this absurd demand. Refaat Alareer's poem should not be censored by our library. Let her know!
@briketysplit How do you 'balance' Apartheid, pray tell?
@briketysplit TPL caving in to the demands constitute Palestinian erasure. Censoring Refaat Alareer is offensive. B'nai Brith doesn't have the right to define what the rest of us are allowed to see and read; we must put a stop to this.
@briketysplit @debbierachlis Once again a Zionist group claims the right to define what Palestinians' words mean.
@briketysplit Here is what you do about it... make 100s of photocopies of the poem. Get some paste and paste the poems on every lamp post in the area and city.
@briketysplit @torontolibrary Censorship is not okay and very unlike the Toronto Library system. Poetry: music of the soul. ~ Book banners are fascists. Please don't cave to them. 📚
@briketysplit That says Main Street which seems not to be under Jennifer Sloane's purview, unless this is out of date? torontopubliclibrary.ca/contact/manage…
@briketysplit Whaaat?! Oh no no no.
@briketysplit People should also contact the City Librarian, Vickery Bowles: [email protected]
