The refutation of the argument against the removal of books from public school libraries and lesson plans is simple. If parents organize and demand the removal of, say, the works of Ibraim Kendi, nothing prevents parents and students who are so inclined from borrowing them from public libraries or buying them wherever it is one buys his books these days.

At issue is what morals and values parents want to impart to their children. Most parents of public school children could not care less, but those that do should have input.
