Curent Events - Heartstopper

Part 1

Heartstopper1 book series has recently been pulled from a public library in Mississippi. On Auguest 9th, they recently held a meeting where residents were able to voice their concerns on the series. The book was taken off the shelves quickly after and is now pending the board's decision. LGBTQ books are not the only ones getting attacked. Books about racism and prejudice are also being removed from libraries all around the US. 1,269 challenges have been made against more then 2,500 books. This censorship seems to only be increasing throughout this year and is predicted to get worse.
