Parents put books at the forefront of Monday night’s Keller Independent School District School Board meeting.

The topic, which has sparked debate across Texas, wasn’t on the agenda, but during public comment they voiced their concerns over books they view to be sexually explicit and want the district to remove them from school libraries.

This isn’t the first time parents have been vocal about books their children have access to at Keller schools. They’ve been going to meetings since October 2021, requesting school leaders to take action.

Frustrated parents pointed out other districts have handled similar situations and told the board they’re not listening to their concerns.

Don't join the book burners. Don't think you're going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don't be afraid to go in your library and read every book...

30 books / The Diary of Ann Frank is on the book ban list -

The first thing Authoritative & fascists do is ban books. Don't believe me ask my girlfriend who is from China. Jia told me how her grandfather was arrested during the Cultural Revolution in 1967 for books of classic literature, Shakespeare plays, & books of philosophy from Machiavelli to Plato.

Jia tells me seeing people wanting to ban books feels like it is scary & only leads to the banning of books & eventually music.

The question will there be A Gang of Four

At this rate the only non offensive books students will be able to read in school are math books.

Typically Jewish people focus on the contents of the old testament. Universally American Christin's teachings are more akin to Anabaptist teachings.

Oh man, the Bible is the worst, but don't ban any of them.
