Sharon K. Sobotta: Unsung heroes fight #censorship. Local #librarians resist book bans and uphold intellectual #freedom
"Amidst political backlash, censorship and the denial of gender identities, librarians may be the most undersung heroes of #democracy. American filmmaker Kim A. Snyder’s 2025 documentary, The Librarians, shines a light on that."
Der Bodybuilder Dustin Pace hat nicht nur einen ziemlichen tollen Insta-Account (non_toxic_masulinity), in dem er sich viel mit Männlichkeit, aber auch mit den #BookBans in den Staaten beschäftigt. Pace trägt in seinen Reels stets politisch korrekte Shirts und vertickt diese sogar noch über seinen Shop. #ReadBooks #LiftWeights #FightFascists https://non-toxic-masculinity.printify.me/

"Albert Einstein and Thomas Mann, Sigmund Freud and Wal-ther Rathenau, Stefan Zweig, Erich Maria Remarque, and Hermann Hesse were among the authors whose names were read aloud in a litany of protest against those who defied 'the national will to live.' The mob threw hundreds of volumes — seized from libraries, synagogues, and churches — onto the massive fire."

"Hargett suggested that libraries that made such books available to children were violating federal and state law. Some libraries have closed for days so staff could focus on weeding out prohibited volumes."

REPUBLICAN BOOK BANS
In 2025, book censorship in the United States is rampant and common.
Never before in the life of any living American have so many books been systematically removed from school libraries across the country. Never before have so many states passed laws or regulations to facilitate the banning of books, including bans on specific titles statewide.

Einblick in die US-Zensurpraxis: In Texas hat ein neues Gesetz zahlreiche Bücher aus Schul- und öffentlichen Bibliotheken verbannt. Daraufhin entstand ein privates Start-up, das gegen hohe Gebühren komplette Bibliothekskataloge "bereinigt". Viele Einrichtungen greifen darauf zurück: "At least 43 public school districts have paid the company for its services this school year, spending more than $138,000 in total for contracts." #libraries #censorship #bookbans
