I'd quote some passages from it here, but it would violate many of the rules of the site. That should tell you everything you need to know to make an educated assumption that it doesn't belong in the hands of schoolchildren.
I’m not talking about this book. It’s not on topic. You just told us it would be good for us to understand how Ziegler wants to “reform” (censor) Disney.
I'm not advocating for Ziegler to reform/censor Disney. Not only that, but as I've discussed recently, there is virtually no means of her accomplishing that by way of her position on the CFTOD board. She would need to get on the Board of Directors of TWDC to have the kind of influence she is allegedly seeking.
It’s not alleged. That was what DeSantis and his cronies hoped to accomplish. They thought they would make Disney's life miserable at WDW & bargain for constraints on their content.
Jeff Vahle: "Oh no! We can't get a permit to replace the sign on Amorette's Patisserie because that bigot Ziegler wants us to get rid of our entire global DEI initiative!"
However, I believe that is what she thought she was getting into when she was appointed. She then quickly realized she would be voting on water treatment and sewage works.
It doesn’t really tell us anything. I could quote grim passages about war crimes from a history textbook and they too wouldn’t be allowed to stand here.
Who's obsessed with whom?
The encompassing issue is that a VERY partisan governor should not be instituting this policy, it should be up to local schools & their educators.
That hasn’t been working it seems. Considering what has been found in schools.
Is it a Disney publication?
I also think we live in an age where children can find whatever they want on the internet on the iPad's they're practically handed at birth. People are not nearly as sheltered as Bridget and her "Mothers on a Crusade".
That’s not an excuse for keeping this kind of stuff in schools. It’s just not. For some of these books, the decision should be easy. It’s low hanging fruit that all should be able to agree.
I wasn't aware that "culture war" was a topic within the RCID/CFTOD charter? Is there something in the legislation I missed that covers this responsibility?
Ding ding ding. Certain folks love to cherry-pick examples and use it as a systemic issue when all it is ... is one example without context in a complicated system.
Understandable... however, I'd like proof that any of these books were actually in schools to begin with.
