In my original August 2023 post, I set out how book bans are about so much more than books. It seemed like a good time to update this piece as the forces at play are stronger than ever.
Unfortunately, we have the book-banners here in Canada, too. Particularly in Alberta and Saskatchewan, but in also in New Brunswick. Right now, the strongest pushback here is Saskatchewan, where teachers are striking about this issue, in addition to others -- like decent pay.
Well said, Dani!

Nicely updated, Dani.
I like your actionable suggestions list.
