Silicon Valley Branch Learns More About School Book Banning: A Primer for Readers of All Ages

March 20, 2024

Members of AAUW Silicon Valley branch, other branches, and community members join to hear Dr. Wolf speak

On March 14, 2024, 62 members of the Silicon Valley Branch, other AAUW branches and community members listened via Zoom to Dr. Jennifer Lynn Wolf’s presentation of “School Book Banning: A Primer for Readers of All Ages.” Dr. Wolf, a Senior Lecturer in the Stanford Graduate School of Education, shared an insightful and thought-provoking presentation about the book banning movement sweeping across the country, especially in the public schools. Some thought-provoking questions were discussed, such as who should decide what young people read? When, if ever, is school book banning appropriate? And how can we best understand the reasons behind book challenges? The event dovetailed nicely with AAUW California’s School Board Project which is focused on protecting public education by defending school boards around the state from regressive members.
