One aspect of libraries that I really love is that they are great equalizers as entities that protect all Americans’ right to freedom of information.

Texas school bans Billie Jean King book. It's too 'gay' for some. - Outsports Want to teach your kids about Billlie Jean King's heroic life and career? In Conroe, Texas, you'll have to look beyond a book.

“The Catcher in the Rye.” “1984.” “Slaughterhouse-Five.”

Book banners have tried to ban these classic books.

Now thanks to the efforts of a Texas school district, perhaps the most controversial title of them all has been added…

“I am Billie Jean King.”
