In early 2024, Moms for Liberty representative Tiffany Justice sat down with MSNBC's Joy Reid to discuss the so-called book bans taking place in schools across the country, mostly in response to the shocking discovery that there are books in the libraries and media centers of public K-12 schools that contain explicit descriptions and depictions of sexual activities and violence. In almost all cases, the content is not only explicit, but also vulgar. Moms for Liberty claims to be merely raising awareness and empowering parents to fight back at the local level, but the likes of Joy Reid and Pen America are accusing them of banning books and attacking freedom of speech and expression. Are these accusations true? What is Moms for Liberty really all about? Is the concern about questionable content in these books overblown or politicized? If Moms for Liberty are as successful in book banning as the likes of Joy Reid think they are, should we stop them? Is book banning the appropriate course of action in a country that has freedom of speech, of expression, of religion, and of association enshrined in its Constitution? Join us on this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast as we explore all these questions and more.
