Original Note:
While books have been removed from school libraries, no book is illegal to purchase or read. The duty of schools is to educate, no to promote one political ideal over another. Even California school districts have removed books like Huck Finn & Of Mice and Men among others. https://sdvoice.info/book-banning-20-year-high/#:~:text=By%20Aldon%20Thomas%20Stiles%2C%20California%20Black%20Media&text=Some%20of%20the%20books%20that,%E2%80%9CMaus%E2%80%9D%20by%20Art%20Spiegelman.
