This is a lie. But what’s new from you dolts? The Diary of Anne Frank is on the Dept statewide curriculum. The “graphic adaptation” was banned due to explicit sexual content and minimizing the holocaust.

There is no explicit sexual content in the graphic novel adaptation. Anything related to sex in the graphic novel is from Anne Frank's diary. How, specifically, does the book 'minimize the Holocaust'?

Obv I can't speak to their intent, but regardless of that the difference does matter from a standpoint of strategy and legality. That it's only a specific county thus far means it can be fought at the county level, by targeting the school board with calls, protests, etc. (1/2)

A full statewide ban explicitly handed down from the Governor's office or legislature would require a different set of tactics to push back against. DeSantis and his lot still need to be fought at the state level, ofc! But fighting back at the county/city/etc level matters too! (2/2)

yeah but the directives are coming from the guy who runs the State, so we need to fight it at the State level, not just the board level. The board's rules mean nothing when the guy at the top is requiring these things from the district.

Why would they ban "The Diary of Anne Frank"? Is it because Amsterdam then was too much like trump's Washington D.C. now?

When I was in school, it was required reading. For me, it was such a great book, I think I reread it like 3 or 4 times. I mean it's just a great book. How is Herr DeSantis frightened by this book?

No I read the unedited version when I was in the 9th grade. I didn’t quite understand her attraction to boys and girls at the time, but rereading it I got the impression she might have been bisexual, but that’s not the story. That seemed somewhat pointless at the time. Not so much now.

"Diary of Anne Frank" is not banned in Florida, though its graphic novel adaptation was removed from a school library in 2023, and the original diary was temporarily removed from shelves for review in at least one school district in 2024.

This is yet another LIE by the left. The title of the original book, which is still in the libraries is “Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl”. In 2018 a graphic novel was published titled “Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation”. That is the book in question because of some of the graphics.
