The academy said the removal was to comply “with all directives outlined in Executive Orders issued by the President.”
The letters sent by the Democrats say the review focused on books that had topics relating to “gender ideology” and “discriminatory equity ideology.”
“If true, this is a blatant attack on the First Amendment and a clear effort to suppress academic freedom and rigor at the United States Naval Academy. Moreover, this reported book ban — or any similar efforts that may be ongoing at the United States Military Academy — displays an alarming return to McCarthy-era censorship,” the representatives wrote.
Why are books like that in a military library anyway? It's like me going to the local yeshiva and complaining that there's no copy of Catcher In The Rye.

DeletePathetic
