@angmarie_7521 There are actual curriculums being proposed that frame slavery as a good thing.
We must preserve our actual history and allow our libraries autonomy.
The best time to protect books is yesterday, the second best time is now.
This gets even better for Democrats.
Governor JB Pritzker, who just launched a major organization to win in swing states, is ready to push his measures in other states.
In direct response to Ron DeSantis’ book banning in Florida, Illinois just signed a law that will make Illinois the FIRST state to END book bans!
Oh this is good.
Not only will it stop Illinois libraries across the states from banning books and other materials, but it will DISQUALIFY libraries from being eligible for state grants if they don’t comply.
“In Illinois, we don’t hide from the truth, we embrace it and lead with it,” Pritzker said. “Banning books is a devastating attempt to erase our history and the authentic stories of many.”
Efforts to curb reading materials are “about restricting the freedom of ideas that certain individuals disagree with,” Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias said.
This is a huge win for FREEDOM and education!
Pritzker will promote these issues and convince voters that DEMOCRATS deliver.
Smash that 💙 if you want to see EVERY state prohibit the ban of books!
California Governor Gavin Newsom just called tonight’s Republican Debate “a clown show”— and declared President Biden the real winner of the debate.
Drop a 💙 if you agree with Governor Newsom!
