Please tell your Congress reps NOT to vote for these horrible book banning bills.

A black and white graphic with a red dash and text that reads: Much like H.R. 2616, this bill seeks to amend the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to limit or withhold funding from schools whose American history and civics education programs teach “discriminatory equity ideology or gender ideology.” It is an attempt to codify Executive Order 14190 (“Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling”) and whitewash our nation’s history, leading to a loss of diverse stories and perspectives.

Teaching a full and honest picture of U.S. history is not indoctrination. Editing and sanitizing that history in favor of patriotic propaganda and white nationalist talking points, however, is.

Loved The Bletchley Riddle by @rutasepetys.bsky.social & Steve Sheinkin! They seamlessly weave history and fiction in this fascinating story appealing to both middle grade and young adult readers. The main characters are wonderful, too, especially the kooky and brilliant Lizzie. #MG #YA
