Thousands of books have been targeted for removal from school and public libraries.  In fact, we've been tracking thousands of book bans here. Yet, the U.S. Dept of Education released a statement calling book bans a hoax! bit.ly/4h76cS5 via @everylibrary.bsky.social
EveryLibrary Objects to Trump Administration Calling Book Bans a Hoax
Book bans have not been a Biden-era hoax, and we have the receipts to prove it.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Remember the rules here: Don’t ever engage, just block.

It’s still a lot of randos coming into posts to antagonize or debate on purpose. Dont fall for the okeedoke. If the vibes are weird block

Also remember that you can detach quotes, hide bad replies, and blocking here is nuclear

I appreciate this clear guidance because I never feel as if I’m adequately describing images.

I better not ever hear another word from a Trump supporter about DEI, affirmative action, or meritocracy after Trump picked the most unqualified and unserious people to join his cabinet.
