Author Updates
During Banned Books Week, we consider who dictates what we can and cannot read. So how do we decide on age-appropriate reading for kids? The Banned Books Week 2022 post appeared on Joni M. Fisher’s Musings about Life Blog Page.
“Let us educate young minds and encourage creativity and freedom of thought without burdening kindergartners to decide on their future sex lives or set their identities in cement. Instead, teach the Golden Rule-to to treat one another the way we want to be treated-along with math, science, history, language, social studies, art, and sports. Leave out the race-shaming, revisionist history, and vogue social agendas. We don’t allow religion in public schools, so what if we stop forcing opposite value systems on kids? We are falling behind other nations scholastically. Less indoctrination. More basic education.” Read more
