[00:00:00] We are going to be talking about the truth about banned books.

And we are going to be, and that's literally the article that I'm going to be reading from, from the free press. No, but. I'm always shocked how, like, the left will be like, Oh, the right's out there banning books, and they're horrible, and they're And then I'm like, okay. Didn't, didn't we ban Dr. Seuss? Not the, the left banned Dr.

Seuss. Didn't you guys, like, just ban Dr. Seuss? Like, didn't you, don't you ban books? All the time these days? You guys are like, actually burning Anne Frank's diary, and I'll put a thing on the screen here, because a lot of people don't know how, like, antisemitic a lot of, like, the far commies are, because, you know, keep in mind, Marx did write like, what is it like the Jewish problem or whatever is his first book?

Commies are very anti Semitic. But yeah, the, the, the books that you guys are banning, you know, the Dr. Seuss and stuff like that, horrifying that you guys are banning that you are actually banning [00:01:00] like pieces of our tradition and stuff like that. You look at the books that the conservatives are banning.

And they're like actual pornography. They'll like demonstrate using cartoon characters for children how to give fellatio. What? Wait, like in your We'll get into all that in a second. Okay, let's. Would you like to know more?

But before we get into that, I want to go into this particular piece because it also shows that conservatives don't actually really ban books.

It's mostly a progressive dog, like, fabrication. Dog whistle. Like the, like the don't say gay bill where that's not So what she's talking about with the jokes of the gay bill is we know the people who wrote that bill before it ever left the Republican side of the planning committee. There was concern that it could be used to prevent gay teachers from talking about their personal lives to their students or letting their students know that they were gay.

And so that was removed from the [00:02:00] bill. By conservatives before it left the conservative planning stage. And then progressives made up that that's what it would do. And yet it has never been used that way. It doesn't do that at all. And yet they created this huge fight and stuff around this where they've created this perception like, Oh, conservatives are out to get gay people, but it's more, no conservatives were concerned about the huge number of child grapes that are happening in our school system right now.

That right now are higher. On a, not, not on an absolute level, but on a per teacher to per preacher level than they were during the Catholic Church at the height of the scandal. It is bad. There is a reason to be putting these laws in place.

So just for people who aren't familiar with the current stats, here's an article from the Federalist, a one in 10 K through 12 students has been sexually abused by a teacher. , and it says that the rate of sexual misconduct in public schools far exceeds the high profile abuse scandals that rocked the Roman Catholic church [00:03:00] and the boy Scouts of America. , and this article came out in 2024, July 15th. Also, admittedly, it is not just the high number of grapes that are the problem.

It is also the systemic attempts at brainwashing children into ideologies that have extremely negative mental health outcomes, which is something we talk about in other videos. my first year in preschool with a class of my own teaching alongside another queer neurodivergent educator and we have been rocking R2's class.

We've been talking about gender and skin color and consent and empathy and our bodies and autonomy. It's been fabulous. But our teaching team is shifting, and a new person is being onboarded. Someone with many years of experience. So today at the lunch table, when the topic of gender and genitals came up, one of our students plainly looked up and said, Well, I'm a girl today.

But I know that Teacher Co isn't. [00:04:00] No, they're Enby. And the look on the incoming teacher's face was priceless. She was shocked in a good way. And she just looked around at the two of us and said, This class is incredible, and I am so impressed.

But anyway, I want to get to this piece right here.

So for example, how to be an anti racist by Imram X. Kendi, which argues that the quote only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination, end quote. So, a book that is actively arguing for discrimination is stocked in 42 percent of US school districts that were surveyed.

Meanwhile, only a single school district, Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas, offers students Woke Racism by John McWhorter, a book that challenges the borderline religious anti racist ideas. Advocated by Kennedy. So what we're, we're showing here is if [00:05:00] you're talking about what's actually being stocked at the stores, like are conservatives influencing this?

Are they conservative influencing what books are there and what books aren't? They're just not and conservative books that are even like Mill Road, or if you're saying, Oh, I want both sites presented, are a functionally banned from our libraries, even fairly mainstream ones. So Felix Ever After, a book by Kacen Caller that claims that girls who hate, quote, being forced into dresses and being given dolls in quote, are transgender, is available in 77 percent of school districts surveyed.

But not a single school out of nearly 5, 000 offered books critical of trans theories. Students won't find books like Trans by Helen Joyce. Or, Irreversible Damage, The Transgender Craze, Seducing Our Daughters, by Abigail Schreier. Both recent bestsellers that present skeptical takes on the rapid rise of transgender identification among [00:06:00] adolescents.

Hmm. So, you know what you're reading is a book that literally, and keep in mind how insane this is, transgenders Wearing dresses and being given dolls is transgender? It's a radical fringe view that is also potentially quite damaging because the gender affirming care that a girl might be driven to get by those ideas is pretty irreversible and can have very, very serious knock on effects.

It's not like that book is in some school libraries. It's in 77 percent. That's Wild. That is absolutely crazy. It is also wild that not a single one of the 5, 000 school libraries searched had either of two bestselling books that were skeptical of trans ideology. Well, it's just, it's weird to me that books on this would be present at all.

I'm thinking of at least my experience with the school library [00:07:00] and I don't know if there were any books that were published aft
