The government has no business banning books like they’re doing in red states. What a private company chooses to do? That’s a different story. Nice try tho.
Florida banned AP African American Studies and passed the "Stop WOKE Act," limiting how systemic racism and slavery are taught.
Texas removed hundreds of books by Black authors and passed laws restricting how racism and U.S. history can be discussed in classrooms.
Arkansas blocked African American Studies from being taught in public schools, labeling it "leftist propaganda."
Oklahoma passed HB 1775, which led to schools limiting discussion of topics like slavery and the Tulsa Race Massacre.
Missouri proposed eliminating standalone Black history courses, folding them into general U.S. history to downplay their importance.
No except when red states target eligible voters who just so happen to be registered democrats.
Virginia tried to purge thousands of voters as “non-citizens” — courts blocked the move for targeting eligible voters.
Alabama attempted a similar purge; a judge halted it for violating federal voting protections.
Georgia & others used unreliable data to challenge voters, risking removal of naturalized citizens.
Texas purged “inactive voters,” disproportionately affecting minorities and low-income communities.
Supreme Court allowed Virginia’s purge to proceed temporarily, setting a dangerous national precedent.
