Banning books may be a cause of misery, but 2 students in Missouri are fighting back after their school district for banning books that talk about LGBTQ identities, as well as books about race. A class-action lawsuit against the Wentzville School District has been filed on behalf of the students by the ACLU of Missouri. In the lawsuit, the ACLU accuses school officials of banning the books due to their “dislike of the ideas contained in the Banned Books and with the intent and purpose to prescribe what is generally or traditionally accepted as right or true in matters of opinion.” The lawsuit is reportedly the first one of any ACLU affiliate to challenge the wave of book banning campaigns currently taking place across the country by conservative parents and GOP politicians.
