Federal Lawsuit on Thursday Alleges Florida Discriminates Against Book Ban-Opposed Parents
Jun 6, 2024, 10:14 PM
A new federal lawsuit has been filed against the state of Florida, alleging discrimination against parents who oppose the recent surge in book removals from public school libraries and classrooms. The lawsuit, filed by three Florida parents on Thursday, claims that the Florida Board of Education violates their rights by not providing a process to object to the removal of books. One of the plaintiffs is Stephana Ferrell, co-founder of Florida Freedom to Read. This legal action highlights ongoing tensions over book bans and censorship in educational institutions and raises First Amendment concerns.
