BOOK BANS GROWING
Books “are disappearing” from K-12 classrooms and libraries across the country in an “unprecedented flood.” After reaching a record high in the 2021-22 school year, book bans increased another 33 percent last year, “supercharged” by “punitive state laws” and “local and national coordinated pressure campaigns.” This is despite opposition from roughly two-thirds of Americans.
