Show Notes
In this episode, we dive into the heated debate over the removal of classic and culturally significant books from Edmonton school libraries. From "The Handmaid’s Tale" to "Brave New World," we explore why these works are being targeted, who’s behind the push for censorship, and what it means for students, parents, and educators. Join us as we unpack the difference between banning and curating, the influence of lobby groups like Action4Canada, and the bigger questions about freedom, education, and who gets to shape young minds. Also dick jokes.
