So keep challenging things people.
It actually does work.
One can only hope!
Bunch of BS.
These bastards can’t make a distinction between publicly supported books In a single primary school and prohibiting the publication of these books.
Want a homo book? Get it on your own dollar.
When Heather Has Two Mommies by Lesléa Newman came out in 1989 a FReeper (name?) wrote: No she doesn’t. She has one mother who has a girlfriend who wears paid flannel shirt.
Look what it started. Thought to be the first in a long line of garbage.
Good.
Q: How many school libraries contain every book ever written?
A: None. There isn’t enough room in any school library to contain every book ever written.
Q: So... if a book is missing from a school library, does this mean it is being “banned?”
A: No. It’s merely not being prioritized.

Wow!? FR was available in 1989? I never knew that. But the trash book should have been burned on sight, nomatter tbe year.
The filth in the public school libraries is astounding. I am embarrassed to even read the language in them. Especially the “graphic novels” that deliver porn in comic book form. We are challenging many of the books here in our school district right now in Sheboygan, WI
Sorry.
It was 1996, the first year of FR, discussing the past as some new LGBTQ books were coming out. I remember because I was lurking after a coworker told me of the wonderful new place. I remember the bulky computers we used to have.
Here in Tennessee, every school is required to publish, on their website, a complete list of all materials in the school library. Not a searchable database, but an actual list. In this case, a bit of transparency goes a long ways.
Lol! I figured it was a typo.
If I’d known about FR in 2000 (first year we had the internet), I’d have joined then.
I guess that means we should redouble our efforts.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
I'm convinced that most graphic novels are written by gays.
Awwww! Groomers be whining.
Has anyone checked to ensure that nothing is accidentally left off the list...?
Trust but verify. :-)
In one school board meeting, a lady started reading from a book from the school library. They the school board people said she couldn’t read it aloud in the meeting because it was too graphic!
Maybe they should have a rule that if you can’t read the book aloud in a school board meeting, it shouldn’t be available in the school library.
(Sorry that I am not as good as Zuriel at finding links to past threads!)
>> This should be concerning for librarians and advocates focused on students’ access to diverse books and ideas,

I will take their commitment to diversity a lot more seriously when they start buying as many conservative books as they do woke books. Until them, I call “baloney.”
Re”.....and books by Dr. Seuss that are no longer published because of racist imagery.”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Of course censoring Dr. Seuss’s books isn’t banning. No. No. Of course not! (/s)
