You may have heard that Houston schools plan to convert libraries to disciplinary centers and fire the librarians.

What you may not have heard is that the State of Texas took over the Houston school district and installed its own superintendent.

That's the guy who is closing libraries. This is not something local residents want, and the superintendent is not locally accountable,

@oh_that_courtney not unlike when Republicans took over
Flint, and the unaccountable occupiers then poisoned everyone’s drinking water.
@alexwild @oh_that_courtney I think that #water control strategy is also going on in #jacksonms. Seems like there are parallels here, in demographics. Also to note that 2020 White House #votersuppression pressures were applied to similar demographics in must have #electoralcollege states. This #library suppression strategy also reeks of #JimCrow

@alexwild @oh_that_courtney
Very much like that!
The constituency had no #voice in that matter…
Like #flint …these TX families are stuck…
In an “authoritarian-trip-back-to-fifties” BS!

These folks love their #freedom #constitution #democracy
Just as long as they have power, control &💰!
The reality is they’re not qualified to make these decisions!

I’m sick of so many adults…
Denying kids any semblance of agency over their own lives.
