Keller Independent School District in northern Texas pulled many books from its school library just before the start of the 2022-23 school school year.
Three new conservative-leaning board members recently joined the Texas school district and sought a re-review of all books that were previously challenged. These are the list for review included over 41 titles and were removed for “explicit” content, according to Fox News.
Some of the titles worthy of removal were “Gender Queer: A Memoir” about man-on-man intercourse, “I Am Jazz,” about a transgender ‘female’ who began transitioning as a young child and “All Boys Aren’t Blue,” about queer black boys are all titles that have the potential to indoctrinate youth. Other challenged titles didn’t merit the removal they received including “The Bible” and “Anne Frank’s Diary (The Graphic Adaptation).”
It has become the “default” for books about queerness to outnumber copies of “The Bible” in school libraries as weekend host Pete Hegseth pointed out on Fox News Thursday morning. “’Bible’s’ out of the school libraries, ‘Gender Queer’ is in,” Hegseth said.
While it’s a shame and intellectually incompetent that “The Bible” has been pulled from shelves, Hegseth noted that at least the other books are also being “contested.”
I think this school district is signaling that they’ll let “The Bible” back in as just a reference book in the library. It’s a reference book you could pull out to read in your spare time, but it won’t be used for school. This policy was imposed because of the tsunami of queer and gender theory. [and] critical race theory that’s entered into libraries at elementary, middle school and high school.
Hegseth is pleased that there is policy in the Texas school district where parents can challenge the books they think aren’t appropriate for their kids to have access to. Yet, he pointed out that with that policy, the woke, leftist, progressives will “use it as an opportunity” to get rid of things they don’t side with like “Anne Frank’s Diary” or “The Bible.”
Hegseth stated that although the policy is potential, parents and the board must be careful with its implementation.
The left-wing explicit books must also be removed from the market if “The Bible”, is not out.
