“One parent should not dictate what another parent’s child should read,” said Roosevelt Weeks, director of Austin Public Library. “A small group of people shouldn’t dictate what the majority of people may want to read or have an option to read." kutne.ws/3JBXviy

“What we’re seeing is really this idea that marginalized communities, marginalized groups, don’t have a place in public school libraries, or public libraries, and that libraries should be institutions that only serve the needs of a certain group of people,” said Caldwell-Stone.

One of our primary asks is that school districts adhere to their own board policies regarding book reconsideration, just like they are required to follow any other policy such as special education policies, financial expenditure policies, policies around board meetings, etc.

Books have power. We know this. It’s no wonder that they are under attack. It’s no wonder that access to these mind-blowing, world-expanding, truth-telling, and life-giving receptacles of knowledge and ideas is being obstructed.

All students deserve #FReadom of access/choice. "In the Supreme Court case Island Trees School District v. Pico (1982), the Court held that the 1st Amendment limits the power of junior high and high school officials to remove books from school libraries because of their content."

""School librarians do not go into this business to harm kids," Woodard said. "They are working really, really hard to select books that represent everyone on their campus." Thanks @marywoodard #FReadom

“A group of parents found out where I live and came to my house to shout at me, while my children watched, about including pornography in the library.” “Board members showed up at my school, while I was doing a book tasting, to audit my shelves for books teaching CRT.” 🧵⬇️

Educators are not burning out because they need to do better at self-care. Educators are burning out because of how they are being treated, what is being expected of them, low levels of respect, etc. Maybe we wouldn't need as much self-care if we addressed the other issues.

My principal- I was hoping that you would demonstrate to your student teacher how valuable acting professionally at school can be. Me sitting cross legged on my desk next to my student teacher- Big words coming from someone standing in lava.

I know it sounds banal as the dickens, but I find a lot of people (including myself) constantly forget that a finished project that doesn't do everything you wanted it to is infinitely more valuable than a perfect project that never gets finished.
