Library book ban attempts are at an all-time high. These librarians are fighting back
More than 4,000 library book bans were attempted in public and school libraries in 2023, according to the American Library Association. Six librarians share how they've responded in their communities.
Only fascists are banning books.
Are any books in america being banned? I would think that it would be almost impossible to ban books unless they go directly against the first amendment.

Ah yes from the party who constantly whines about their first amendment rights being 'violated' on social media fires librarians for speaking out against actual censorship from the government.
"Honestly, the fact that you're not just rolling over and letting me fuck you is making me feel pretty uncomfortable. You're taking an aggressive stance and I feel violated that you won't let me control your rights. I feel unsafe continuing this conversation without flexing my second amendment rights."

The fact that I can’t predict your genitals is unsafe and I feel scared you have to die. Somehow you’re the snowflake.
God I love librarians.
Especially wearing glasses and telling me where to find books on bamboo construction. Whew boy they're the hero's we need
While on the subject of burning books, I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and destroyed records rather than have to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles. So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House of Representatives, or the media. The America I loved still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.
