        As members of a profession committed to free & equitable access to information & the pursuit of truth, we stand firm in opposing any effort to suppress knowledge, to label “controversial” views, or dictate what is orthodox in history, politics, or belief. https://bit.ly/ALA-FTR

        ALA opposes any legislative proposal or local initiative intended to ban instruction, consideration, or discussion about the role of racism in U.S. history or how systemic racism manifests itself in our schools, workplaces, & government agencies. https://bit.ly/ALA-EB-8-2021

        Attempts to remove materials dealing with LGBTQIA+ life is censorship and must be resisted. ALA supports the 1st Amendment right of all library users, regardless of age, to have free and equal access to the entire range of library materials. https://bit.ly/LGBTQ-Access

        Does anyone else see the irony in the people leading the charge to “protect” our children from books are the same people who refuse to protect them from guns and deadly pandemics? 🤔
