The Utah Library Advocates organization on Tuesday addressed the recent rise in censorship in Utah school libraries and announce an e-book designed to help parents navigate the issue.
The move comes after a wave of book challenges in both school and public libraries in Utah and across the country, and an effort to have librarians or teachers arrested for sharing books some find objectionable with students.
SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) â
A group of parents, organized by the group Utah Parents United, plan to ask the Canyons School Board at a Tuesday meeting not teach critical race theory.
That’s according to a post on that group s Facebook page.
It s a term getting a lot of attention these days. Critical race theory examines the ways in which race and racism influence American politics, culture and the law. There seems to be an agreement by people on both sides of the discussion that going through the pages of history is important. It s exactly how it s done that s causing some controversy.
