Federal troops on city streets in the United States is not normal.

Banning books in schools and libraries in the United States is not normal.

This is not normal.
What is happening in the United States is not normal.

We need more of us — so many more us — resisting these monstrous evildoers.

Had a great discussion around this table with a group of students today about the kinds of books being banned and protecting the freedom to read. The kids are all right! #BannedBooksWeek

My three fave audiobooks so far this year were The Second Chance of Benjamin Waterfalls, Ex Marks the Spot, and Twenty Four Seconds from Now. Loved them all so much, and the audio defo enhanced the experience.

The Trump administration doesn't care about protests BUT all of the organizations, institutions, & corporations who are deciding whether or not to capitulate might. A massive showing on April 5 could show them they have more to lose long term with compliance than defiance

ALA response to White House assault on IMLS
To dismiss the mission of an agency that advances opportunity and learning is to dismiss the aspirations and everyday needs of millions of Americans. And those who will feel that loss most keenly live in rural communities. 
As seedbeds of literacy and innovation, our nation’s 125,000 public, school, academic and special libraries deserve more, not less support. Libraries translate 0.003% of the federal budget into programs and services used by more than 1.2 billion people every year. Show Up for Our Libraries, ALA American Library Association, #ForOurLibraries

President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders.

I've been called overqualified by having a Ph.D. and experience. Those who'd call a fantastic candidate overqualified are often looking for someone they can pay less, yes. But often they just assume and throw you out rather than asking.

Get every single one of you on the same page and present a unified front of resistance. You can't vote in there, but you can boo.
