Roberto Clemente book removed from Florida public schools pending review over discrim

:laugh: No kidding.

I wonder if the "media specialists" are sworn to secrecy and unable to state which books are being banned? Remember how DeSatan sent the cops to raid the home of FL state data scientist Rebekah Jones for daring to publicize the fact that they were not reporting COVID cases and deaths accurately? Librarians in FL can look forward to SWAT raids for revealing banned book lists, wait for it.

The Usual Suspects would support such raids.

What do you suspect the Concern Trolls like pEarl would do if the books being removed were celebrating Robert E. Lee's life, the horrors of life in the USSR, or the history of Japanese atrocities in WWII?

These far left loons seem to have a very small vocabulary. Take away racism and hate and their vocabulary drops 50%.

These loons never realize that there is reverse racism by Blacks against Whites every day in America. There is hatred on all sides and these loons love nothing more than to stoke the flames.

Shit bricks and burn down schools is the most likely outcome from WSEs like Captain Earl Turner, ex-USAF.

You deny but fail to clarify. Given your past reputation, you are being dishonest. I’m just not sure how much and for what reason.

I didn't deny anything. I asked you to show where EXACTLY I said what you claimed that I said and you did not but rather tried to salvage your little charade.

As usual.

I gather they are being reviewed regarding discrimination as the other banned topics seem unrelated.
I suppose Clemente did experience some discrimination in his career but he was actually a very positive force to countering it. Pittsburgh LOVED him. One of my school chums father was a local scout for the Pirates and obviously a huge fan not to mention a bona fide judge of baseball talent and he said Clemente was extraordinary. I spent a number of days over at their house when the Pirates were on TV and learning a lot from him.

DeSantis and Florida disagree with you; they do not see him as positive nor do they love him. They think his life should be hidden from children.

Disagreed. You are free to deny your own words.
 
“Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed laws last year that require schools to rely on certified media specialists to approve which books can be integrated into classrooms. Guidance on how that would be implemented was provided to schools in December.

Books must align with state standards such as not teach K-3 students about gender identity and sexual orientation; not teach critical race theory, which examines systemic racism in American society, in public grade schools; and not include references.”

This was necessary due to the far left Democratic Socialist loons trying to revise history and teach porn to six year olds.

What is it with these loons and their obsession with perversion and children and revising history?

Age appropriate measures have always been the norm with libraries for children until these loons came along.
 
Ron DeSantis is a cretinous troglodyte devoid of any redeeming qualities,
but if we think the politicians are the problem,
we'll never straighten anything out.

DeSantis was legitimate elected by a majority of Florida's voters.

His mind-boggling douchebaggery got a ringing endorsement from these sub-human mutants who willingly chose to be his constituents.

if we allow citizens of that "quality" to exist, never mind have a vote,
how can we expect anything different than a slimebucket like DeSantis turning one of the world's prime resort areas into North Korea?

Florida has really gone off the deep end under DeSantis in rewriting and restricting American history?!!

A book about late Afro-Puerto Rican MLB legend Roberto Clemente can't be found in the shelves of public school libraries in Florida's Duval County these days.

“Roberto Clemente: Pride of the Pittsburgh Pirates” by Jonah Winter and Raúl Colón — and other books about Latino figures such as the late Afro-Cuban salsa singer Celia Cruz and Justice Sonia Sotomayor — are among the more than 1 million titles that have been "covered or stored and paused for student use” at the Duval County Public Schools District,

.

School officials are in the process of determining if such books comply with state laws and can be included in school libraries.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed laws last year that require schools to rely on certified media specialists to approve which books can be integrated into classrooms. Guidance on how that would be implemented was provided to schools in December.

Books must align with state standards such as not teach K-3 students about gender identity and sexual orientation; not teach critical race theory, which examines systemic racism in American society, in public grade schools; and not include references to pornography and discrimination, according to the school district.

In January, 52 certified media specialists for Duval started reviewing about 1.5 million book titles, Sonya Duke-Bolden, a spokesperson with the public schools district told NBC News Friday. Close to 2,800 books have been approved by media specialists so far. Duke-Bolden did not say if more books were reviewed but not approved.

PEN America, a nonprofit group that advocates for free expression in literature, said in December that 176 elementary school books from their Essential Voices collection were among the titles removed from Duval County public school libraries.
