Today, books that shaped my life—and many others—are being challenged in schools, bookstores, and libraries by people who disagree with certain ideas or perspectives. Often, these “banned books” are written by or feature people of color and members of LGBTQ communities.

Culture wars, dog whistle politics, and attempts to defund our public schools by the GOP undermine our teachers.
A staggering 70% of Virginians trust teachers to make decisions about curriculum over politicians in Richmond. washingtonpost.com/education…

Gaetz: "Why is it that the women with the least likelihood of getting pregnant are the ones most worried about having abortions? Nobody wants to impregnate you if you look like a thumb."

In elevating national image, @GovernorVA plays hide & seek in #Va:
‘Youngkin has selectively engaged w/ the media, w/held public records requests in cases where his office has wide discretion & released fairly limited details about his schedule.’ apnews.com/article/covid-hea…
