Here is a list of 50 books that conservative parents in Texas are trying to have banned from schools, and just about every single one is considered problematic for discussing racism or LGBTQ issues.
For example, one book being targeted is White Bird: A Wonder Story by R.J. Palacio. NBC News summarizes: “A parent in the Spring Branch ISD said this graphic novel — about a Jewish teen living in France after Nazis seized power — should be banned because it’s ‘biased’ and could lead to the ‘skewing of a young child’s mind.’” We wouldn’t want any young minds to be skewed against Nazis.
Another targeted book is a biography of Michelle Obama that one parent complained “unfairly depicts former President Donald Trump as a bully.”

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
