Florida school library bans “The Hills We Climb," the poem written & read by Amanda Gorman at Joe Biden’s inauguration.

Ron DeSantis & Donald Trump don't want you to hear this poem, so I'm posting it here. Pass it on.

Bob Graham Education Center — a K-8 school located in Miami Lakes — has banned student from reading or checking out the following books.

They said the reason included references of, "indirect hate messages," critical race theory, gender ideology & indoctrination.
1. The Hills We Climb
2. Cuban Kids
3. Countries in the News Cuba
4. Love to Langston
5. The ABCs of Black History

Ironically, the controversy led to a surge in sales for Amanda Gorman's writing. "The Hills We Climb" hit #1 on the Amazon Best Seller list.

@senatemajldr The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”

— Mitch McConnell, March 2016.

Why the change?
