I've worked really hard to get where I am today. Stuff like this makes me feel like my very existence and effort in getting here is a threat. Why do people want to erase my identity and path? Why do people want to erase my ability to help others? It is exhausting.

Remember, it was George Wallace that first taught us that in order to get the vote, you had to give the people something to hate. Even though Birchers had largely gone into the closet, they were just waiting for this opportunity to pounce. Hitler tried to erase my people.
Youth are online and books exist digitally, too!
Librarians and citizens:
Resist!!

As a high school teacher librarian, I can tell you there are many on the ground resisting.
One small hope: book bans go viral online and that's where youth are! & they want to read it all 💪🙌🏼

turned back the clock. Only worse. He wants there to be no clock. I am so sorry that this is happening. It is fascism and utterly wrong. You deserve your successes.
So they keep it up. Immigration wasn't enough. Roe wasn't enough. They cannot stop, because if they stop, they're dead
That's where the Republican party is right now: riding the tiger; the "tiger" being white resentment.
Shine with unbreakable freedom!
IT. IS. NOT. THE. SAME. AS. A. CIVILIAN. CAREER.
They don't want us to measure their actions against history- because they know how evil they are.
Now it's going to be worse.

Erasure.
We fight back.

If someone is keeping a list of all these books, I'd sure love to have a copy so I can buy every single one!
In case you haven't read it ...

But none want to hear…
You are valued by many of us. You don't deserve to feel threatened.
I see you. I value you.
Love from an old woman in Ontario.
Because they're ashamed of themselves and think treating someone else like shit will erase the fact that actually THEY THEMSELVES are shit. Also, they don't want to help others.
I feel the same way you do.
You're not alone, Dr. Johnson.
