Everyone knows by now that what they taught us in school about Thanksgiving was bullshit, right? A lie, because the truth was so horrific we’d question EVERYTHING about the founding of this country. Book banning is real now, but whitewashing history was always real.

Do you know what drives me up the wall? When politicians describe decisions which will harm people as ‘sensible’ or ‘pragmatic’ and journalists who enable them describe these policies as ‘grown up’. It’s grotesque. What’s grown-up about creating more suffering?

"Censorship teaches conformity, not critical thinking. By banning books, we create echo chambers instead of classrooms. Let’s teach our students to analyze, question, and grow—not to fear ideas that challenge their worldview. #TeachTheTruth #CriticalThinking"

"‘If you’re not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are oppressed and loving those who are doing the oppressing.’ – Malcolm X. Book banning is a modern-day tool for controlling whose stories matter. We need to stand against censorship and for educational justice. #BannedBooks
