Y’all-itics: August 21, 2022

41 library books have come off the shelves inside one school district in North Texas. Why? Parents challenged why their children should be exposed to them.   Among the titles are “Anne Frank’s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation” and – wait for it – the Bible.  Public school libraries are now the frontlines in the ongoing culture wars.  In this episode of Y’all-itics, a fired up Keller ISD mom joins the Jasons with a strong warning for parents in other school districts about what’s coming.  Plus, state Rep. Matt Krause takes their call as well.  The Fort Worth Republican says it’s always a good idea to make sure library books in public schools are age appropriate.  This issue is suddenly spreading, and Krause said he expects the Texas legislature to address it next year.
