I'm on an email list for the American Library Association. Today the subject line was: How to use government relief funding to eliminate reading barriers & increase equity.
I read the email and clicked the link which took me to this page. The headline is "Use government relief funds to give every student access to the right books."
The right books. Who, I want to know, chooses which books are "right" books?
It's for a reading app and maybe it's a wonderful thing. But the way it's worded sends shivers up my spine.
