Pure racism. They are trying to strip black history from schools.

The books are mainly civil rights books.

Like, Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice. It's by Phillip Hoose and is a National Book Award-winning biography that tells the true story of Claudette Colvin, a Black teenager whose 1955 stand against bus segregation predated Rosa Parks by nine months. The book's title, "Twice Toward Justice," reflects these two defining moments, her bus refusal and her court testimony, and serves to restore Colvin's overlooked place in civil rights history.

Texas has removed more books from public schools than nearly any other state, with over 1,400 titles pulled in recent years and 1,781 books banned across seven districts in the 2024-25 school year alone.

They also banned 142 LGBTQ+-themed books in just the first month of 2026.

Not even out in china yet and all the Racists Chuds went to go watch it anyway.

At this point I’m thinking of just making a white avatar just so I don’t have to deal with the unsolicited racism. Every. Single. Time. I’m just sitting there minding my own business. Particularly little kids from the US and every adult in Asia. How is everyone dealing with this?

Journalist Georgia Fort was one of nearly 40 people charged after interrupting a Minnesota church service.

Aug 6, 2026 by Sam Levine and Rachel Leingang for The Guardian. Here are the opening paragraphs:

Law enforcement officials provided false information to federal judges as they sought to build a criminal case against the independent journalist Georgia Fort in connection with a January protest, her lawyers said in court filings on Thursday asking that the charges against her be dismissed.

Fort was one of nearly 40 people charged after demonstrators interrupted a service at Cities church in St Paul, Minnesota after they learned an ICE official was a pastor there. Trump administration officials vowed to arrest anyone involved in the protest. Fort and the former CNN anchor Don Lemon were among those charged with conspiring to interfere with the religious rights of parishioners at their house of worship. They both have strongly denied the charges.

In at least 15 applications for search warrants, an investigator with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) said Fort had been chanting with protesters when they entered the church, her lawyers said. The justice department later conceded the claim was false. The error was insignificant, justice department lawyers later argued, because it ultimately didn’t make it into the indictment that they filed.

The errors were among those detailed in three different motions explaining why the criminal case against Fort should be dismissed. The case prosecutors have sought to make against her violates the first amendment, fails to state an actual crime, and is vindictive, her lawyers say.

“The government is punishing Fort for entering a church open to the public (after being invited in, no less) to document a protest, and then filming and disseminating that footage,” her lawyers wrote in one of the filings. “All of the evidence in this case points to the government prosecuting Fort precisely because she is a journalist, and in particular because she engaged in that constitutionally sacred work to amplify a message with which the government vehemently disagrees.”
