NH is not Florida: Book ban bill should be defeated
SB 523, a bill that has been introduced in the New Hampshire Legislature and is scheduled to be voted on by the state Senate on Thursday, April 4, would allow a principal or another individual to unilaterally ban a book without a review committee. If the principal does not ban the book, the parent who challenged the material could appeal the decision, and the school board would vote – not media specialists, not educators, not people who literally have been trained to decide what is and is not appropriate for kids of a certain age. At no point, if a book is banned, would the public have the opportunity to appeal the decision.
