🧵My pal, @joclasp.bsky.social, hosted a drag queen book club for our organization, @midlandsapple.bsky.social, today at Yew Belong Community Center, where she highlighted 'Flamer' by @mikecurato.bsky.social. This important text was recently banned by our state superintendent of education... #MomSky

The Instructional Materials Review Committee recommended the removal of all 10 books today. Speakers included one of the authors & 2 in favor of banning. The book bans will now be voted on by the SC Dept. of Ed’s board at their next meeting. Please contact your state school board rep!

Join us (virtually) today!! One Beaufort County parent has challenged the state to remove 10 more books from ALL school libraries. The ACLU of South Carolina is hosting a virtual watch party so we can support the advocates defending these titles and the FREEDOM TO READ! Register here: bit.ly/3R3x4aa

Let's talk DEI. Misconceptions about DEI include assuming DEI decisions are only about people of color. Really, DEI decisions are based on context each time! The SC DEI bill, H. 3927, IS NOT about equality or fairness. It eliminates fairness & hides discriminatory practices from the public.
