574. Lynette Mejia. Library Defender. — Corrected.
574. We talk to Lynette Mejia about her defense of the Lafayette Library system. Louisiana
born and raised, Lynette has
become one of the faces of the anti-censorship movement in
Lafayette, co-founding Lafayette Citizens Against Censorship and
Louisiana Citizens Against Censorship. "The board," Mejia said,
"has a very specific far-right Christian nationalist worldview
and seems bent on imposing it on the library and changing its
programming and collections to fit that world view."
The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it
as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in
print for the first time in 220 years. Order your copy today!
Plessy v. Ferguson, "seperate but equal"
"Battle of New Orleans" by Johnny Horton became the number-one
country single.
