Of course we are not a bit surprised at this. If there's anything Fuehrer DeSatan hates, it's books and education.
‘Farewell, classroom library.’ Manatee teachers cover their books after new Florida law
Photos of Manatee County classroom libraries have gone viral on social media after a report of the school district asking teachers to remove all unapproved books per a new Florida law. Multiple teachers have posted on social media that they’re upset at having to remove or cover up books in their classrooms. A blogger’s Twitter thread about the issue had 3.4 million views as of Monday afternoon.
“Farewell, classroom library,” one teacher posted on Facebook. “My heart is broken for Florida students today as I am forced to pack up my classroom library,” another posted. “I will have even more work to do just to make sure my kids have the best education ever,” a third said.
“They can be charged with a third-degree felony,” said Patricia Barber, the president of the county’s teachers union. “They’ve criminalized providing a book, when there really is just a vague definition of what books are not appropriate.”
