      (1/3) An anti-trans book was included in our July mailing to members. This is a serious, violent incident that goes against ABA’s ends policies, values, and everything we believe and support. It is inexcusable.

          (2/3) We apologize to our trans members and to the trans community for this terrible incident and the pain we caused them. We also apologize to the LGBTQIA+ community at large, and to our bookselling community.

          (3/3) Apologies are not enough. We’ve begun addressing this today and are committed to engaging in the critical dialogue needed to inform concrete steps to address the harm we caused. Those steps will be shared in the next three weeks.

          Passive voice. You included an anti-trans book. It did not appear out of thin air. People made decisions and created this list and sent it. Just as a poorly worded tweet was not simply sent, someone wrote the tweet, approved it, sent it.

          I’d take more issue with the ridiculous, melodramatic use of the word “violent” to describe a reading list, if I were you, English Expert.

          Was this “serious, violent incident” like when my daughter hurled a copy of Bridget Jones Diary at the wall? That WAS “violent” because I had to listen to her fury at wasting time reading rubbish. V, V, Violent, BTW!

          Y'all don't know how to apologize. It should be: "We included a transphobic book in our July mailing to members. This is a serious, violent incident that goes against ABA's end policies, values, and everything we believe and support. Our actions are inexcusable." (1/3)
