Remember when it was allegedly the conservatives who were book banners? Scratch a leftist, find a fascist. Also, these "concerned" black parents sure don't seem to mind the misogyny and racist language in rap music and associated culture.

SELF-OWN: California Gov. Gavin Newsom Poses with To Kill a Mockingbird, Banned by District in Own State.
Aside from mockery online by those who were incredulous that he had not read most of the books already, since several are common in school curricula, some pointed out that Newsom was mocking other states despite California’s own examples of censorship.
To Kill a Mockingbird was recently banned, at least temporarily, by schools in Burbank, California, among other classic books, over concerns about “racism” and the use of racial slurs in the text. As Newsweek reported at the time:
Middle and high school English teachers in the Burbank Unified School District received the news during a virtual meeting on September 9.
Until further notice, teachers in the area will not be able to include on their curriculum Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, Theodore Taylor’s The Cay and Mildred D. Taylor’s Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.
Four parents, three of whom are Black, challenged the classic novels for alleged potential harm to the district’s roughly 400 Black students.

The Church Of Covid’s School Lockdowns Hurt Minorites The Most
In a country obsessed with white privilege and racism, can we please have a “national discussion” on how destructive two years of lockdowns and “remote learning” have been to minorities?
Literacy scores show widening achievement gap in D.C. during pandemic [Washington Post – 3/17/2022]
The overwhelmingly white, work-from-home, laptop class was able to maintain their children’s educational progress through the Covid years by effectively home-schooling them. Children of those less privileged, on the other hand, pretty much missed two entire years of schooling. Sadly, elementary-aged children who fall several years behind in math and reading are generally doomed to never catch up.

Despite NATO allies denouncing Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, an independent pollster in Moscow has found Russians rallying around the flag and giving Putin 83% approval on his actions, The New York Times reported Thursday.
The 83% approval is actually rising from his 69% in January before the invasion, according to the latest Levada Center poll.
The approval on Putin is up, along with many other government institutions and the governing party, according to the report.

China is accusing the United States of instigating the war in Ukraine and says NATO should have been disbanded following the break-up of the Soviet Union.
“As the culprit and leading instigator of the Ukraine crisis, the U.S. has led NATO to engage in five rounds of eastward expansion in the last two decades after 1999,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian told reporters at a daily briefing Friday.
“The number of NATO members increased from 16 to 30, and they have moved eastward more than 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) to somewhere near the Russian border, pushing Russia to the wall step by step,” Zhao said.
Joe is leading the free world and doing an awesome job -
1 - Vlad has killed innocent people.
2 - China has killed innocent people.
3 - The US instigated the war.
4 - The US has killed innocent people.
All can be true.
