This is exactly why parents need to be the dominate force in the American education system - the federal government and teacher unions have steered our schools away from education towards leftist indoctrination.
Wow, where to start with this one? Emily Drabinski is the president of the taxpayer-funded American Library Association. Back in June, publisher Brave Books announced that the ALA was "circulating guidance to sabotage conservative or Christian parent groups from gathering in public libraries" on "See You at the Library" day, led by Christian actor Kirk Cameron. One former librarian-turned-radical writer, Kelly Jenson, wrote an article at Book Riot about how “public libraries need to prepare" and suggested that Cameron's events could be barred based on a "public safety concern." Drag Queen Story Hour? Fine. Christian story hour? A public safety concern.
Just last month, NBC News did a profile on self-described Marxist lesbian Drabinski. Right-wing activists, you see, "had asserted that librarians following the ALA’s lead have been captured by a 'woke' ideology, have labeled the organization 'radical' and accused it of pushing a sexual agenda on children." Sen. Ted Cruz responded to NBC News' story:
Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) ~ NBC is a joke.
She’s a self-described Marxist. @nbc come roaring to defend a communist put in charge of our libraries.
Why would a devotee of Stalin, Lenin, Mao & Castro want to control the books we read? 🤔

Yeah, Drabinski ... it is "regrettable" ... that a Marxist devotee, such as yourself, would have influence over the reading material in public school libraries and advocate for public school libraries to be utilized as sites for socialist organizing. You should be deported to Moscow where you will feel more at home in the loving embrace of Pooty Poot.
Just a few weeks ago, psychologist Karlyn Borysenko, who says she's "obsessed with socialist dystopia," attended the Socialism 2023 Conference, where Drabinski agreed that libraries as well as public schools should be "helping" organize.

Two weeks after saying libraries should be sites of socialist organizing, @ALALibrary President Emily Drabinski says librarians can't be politically neutral.
She's introduced as a Marxist and discusses the "harassment" she's received for being quoted accurately.

I spent the last three days undercover at the largest socialist conference in the country.
That's where I caught American Library Association President Emily Drabinski saying explicitly that libraries (and public schools) need to be sites of socialist organizing.

StopWokeCulture (@MkayUokay) ~ Reading is wonderful. Books are fantastic.
Political organizing, when it’s not tediously boring, creates angst.
If the ALA is going to turn into a political organizing site, then there should be truth in advertising. People should know what they are supporting.
Cindy Allen (@cindylouallen) ~ Librarians should not involve politics or their sexuality in their libraries.
Just Whitey (@Just_Whitey) ~ The commies have infiltrated everything.
Karlyn Borysenko (@DrKarlynB) ~ Find full coverage of the event Emily was speaking at exclusively on the @ActivelyUnwoke Substack: http://karlyn.substack.com/p/exclusive-american-library-association
"Comrade." And she's concerned that librarians are under attack because parents don't want sexually explicit books in middle school libraries.
