Virginia School Board 'Wokeness Checker' Wants Toni Morrison Banned for 'Porn'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A school board member who runs a “wokeness checker” snitch site has pressed a Virginia school district to purge six books from its shelves, alleging that the books—including a seminal Toni Morrison novel—are rife with “pornographic” content.

In an email sent to Virginia Beach City Public Schools Superintendent Aaron Spence earlier this week, at-large school board member Victoria Manning said that another board member, Laura Hughes, joined her in demanding four books be removed from circulation or use in the district’s curriculum “due to their pornographic nature.”

“It has been brought to my attention by some parents that there are some disturbing books in our district that are available to students,” Manning wrote on Oct. 5. “I would like to ask that you pull these books from shelves and also block any electronic access by students to getting these books IMMEDIATELY.”

Manning demanded that staff involved in approving the books be disciplined. Spence replied that four of the books that were not a part of district curriculum had been removed, pending a review.

1. Might as well put up a flashing neon sign screaming, "HEY KIDS!!"

"THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO READ THIS!!"

Hey, anything that encourages reading, I'm okay with it. I'd say "go nuts" but they're clearly already there.

Those who don't learn from history are bound to repeat it: Exhibit A.

...perhaps to dream of a pre-alarm world wherein everyone is in the dark and no reality disturbs and it's always sunny in Pleasantville.
