On the push to ban some children’s books, @levarburton tells #TheView, “I’ll be absolutely candid and honest. It’s embarrassing that we are banning books in this country; in this culture; in this day and age.” “Read the books they’re banning. That’s where the good stuff is!”

There are many other issues facing our town, state, and country. I’m a father of three. My sister is a full-time educator. I am a full-time educator. I don’t have the luxury of focusing on other issues until this one is resolved. No more dead kids. No more dead teachers.
