Wow, Jessica has no comprehension of how children’s minds work. “Send them to school with their own banned list.”???? She shouldn’t be on a major platform like this. Clearly not a developed mind.
Apparently parents have the time, access, and energy to inventory their entire local school's library on a whim! Or possibly schools, plural, if they have multiple children. I am no parent, and I know that's nonsense.
Can Jessica please explain how parents can give a list of band books when they don't know what the books are? The whole point of this is everyone discovered the books only because of Covid because they started seeing their kids at home with these things if you go to school with a list, it's going be outdated the minute you get there. It makes way more sense for people to be opting into this garbage then opting out.
Yes it's ridiculous that each individual parent should maintain a book blacklist when it's way easier for a parent seeking certain books can find them in shops or a public library. Also supplying a list of banned books will only draw attention to them which is the opposite of what we're trying to achieve.
Proud Floridian here. I'm sick of these culture wars involving books. Let's just go back to the rules of library around 2000 or 2010. Whatever the rules were back then regarding books, let's just do that. This is exhausting from BOTH SIDES!!
These books should be nowhere near an elementary school library. The parents are the ones to decide if they want to seek these books. Jessica is a freak.
@@crowe6961 They weren't. They were in high schools. That woman in Virginia that Amber mentioned? Her name is Stacy Langton. Her 'child' was a teenager and a student at Fairfax High School. And incidentally, the school removed the two books for review, and after review, they were put back on shelves and her claim was deemed meritless.
Except 99% of parents can't or won't teach their own kids to read or how to do math. American kids will all end up working for the Chinese. They understand how both family and community work better than Americans do now.
The sad part is Jessica does not understand that in California (HER OWN STATE) has passed laws where schools and teacher's dont have to tell the parents ANYTHING! and the teachers tell the students not to tell their parents.
You're advocating for censorship. It's funny how people cry when the left censors, but you cheer it on when the right does it. Neither side sees eye to eye with themselves even. In your mind youre only talking about those specific disturbing books (which the publisher should stop publishing), in my mind im looking at it as a domino effect for banning other books. Do you see where the disconnect is? All roads to ruin are paved with good intentions.
Middle schoolers should have access to books about sexuality. This isnt controversial. Do you know anything about the history of American interference in Latin America? Bc if you know anything at all, youll realize why Lula is being reasonable... Also, how do you feel about the tik tok ban? Do you call that a matter of "National security" like Amber did? Does Brazil get to be concerned with their national security?
So she wants to provide the parents a list of every single book in the school and then have each parent decide what books their children cannot check out and she thinks that's more cost effective. 😂 Imagine being the librarian and having to enter in five hundred students different preferences.
How many parents do you think would have time to check the entire school library looking for books they don't want their kids to check out? This can not be the solution. Schools generally give you a reading list at the beginning of the year, a parent could review that, but an entire library is insane.
Why not put potentially controversial books in a special group. At the beginning of the year, every child gets a permission slip where the parent chooses yes, their kid can access these books or no, they can’t. Easy.
Simple. If you want your child to read a book that's not in the library buy it. Go to the public library and rent it. The arguments against it are so bad faith that you wonder why they would even make it unless there's some other reason they don't want to say.
Get these garbage books out of school libraries...if irresponsible parents wanna give their elementary school kids sexually explicit books they can buy them elsewhere
C'mon. This is ridiculous! Jessica was allowed to read anything when she was growing up and she turned out to be a smart, well rounded, objective person!
Probably got swept up in the dragnet after being added by people with dubious motives, and stuck due to the portions about her self-discovery as a teenager while being very bored, scared, and hidden. Still needs to be on high school reading lists though, no question.
This suit is so far from the First Amendment that the lawyers who brought it ought to lose their licenses for wasting everyone's time. The law doesn't prevent anyone from reading, writing, or publishing; Random House is free to publish or not publish whatever it wants and sell it wherever. The law simply transfers a curriculum decision from schools to parents or one group to another. Pedagogically, that may be a good idea or an idiotic one, but it's not a constitutional one.
How can the diary of Anne Frank be a banned book? Especially now, shouldn't young teens be reading this extraordinary work of world literature? Next are you going to tell me they are banning Huckleberry Finn?
Huckleberry Finn has been "revised for modern audiences", and teachers have been fired for quoting the standard version directly in leftist areas. We are in a post-truth era. That said, I suspect the Anne Franke issue in Florida was caused by the title being added in bad faith.
Books were being removed and put out of circulation pending review. Additionally, vigilantes were calling cops on librarians. Even the cops were confused by the calls. The Governor reconsidered when the Bible was recommended for removal due to violence. With lobve from Florida. How about let the parents be parents.
This is about explicit material rather than disinformation. The line is a lot less fuzzy when we're talking about appropriate material for elementary school students and young teenagers.
@@crowe6961 You think explicit is a firewall stop ? Appropriate material has been taken away from the parents deciding . There are dark forces standing behind some publishers and federal school authorities.
Yeah yeah yeah, fire Jessica, whatever, i agree, BUT! They gotta get rid of this smarmy bridge troll as well, AND Douchie McDoucherson Robbie the Knobby too!
if a parent can't read them at school board meetings, then they are obscene.
Wow, Jessica has no comprehension of how children’s minds work. “Send them to school with their own banned list.”????
She shouldn’t be on a major platform like this. Clearly not a developed mind.
So the expectation is for the parent to be aware of ALL the books they might find exceptionable in the school library so they can make a list?
Apparently parents have the time, access, and energy to inventory their entire local school's library on a whim! Or possibly schools, plural, if they have multiple children. I am no parent, and I know that's nonsense.
Parents can BUY their children whatever books they want. But that doesn’t change the fact that sexually explicit books shouldn’t be in schools.
Let's ban the Bible then
Parents can still buy these for the children.
And then CPS can pay them a visit.
@@bbchester6for reading a book? Pssh yea right
jessica is gettin wrose and worse

No first grader in history has read A Tale of Two Cities or A Diary of Anne Frank, Jessica….Seriously…
did you just discover the difference between elementary, middle and high schools?

Seriously, I don't remember this being an issue as i was going to school from the 90s through the late 2000s. How absurd!
These books should be nowhere near an elementary school library. The parents are the ones to decide if they want to seek these books. Jessica is a freak.
These books aren't in elementary school libraries. They never were.

Fire Jessica
Would Jessica allow The Turner diaries in a school library or is she in favor of banning books?
It’s the PARENTS JOB NOT THE GOVERNMENTS JOB END OF STORY
Except 99% of parents can't or won't teach their own kids to read or how to do math. American kids will all end up working for the Chinese. They understand how both family and community work better than Americans do now.
You think the same about vaccines?
Actually its the governments job to provide learning materials. We literally fund libraries for that purpose.
@@jeffreyblack6611 I have come to the conclusion that people who say stuff like this are probably grewmers...
Yes, make sure every parent reads every book their child ever gets from school before they do.🫠
The sad part is Jessica does not understand that in California (HER OWN STATE) has passed laws where schools and teacher's dont have to tell the parents ANYTHING! and the teachers tell the students not to tell their parents.
No, she already supported that.
Go Amber!! Your the only one telling the truth. Love fridays on Rising.
Jessica should absolutely be fired
She compared twilight books to these other books 😂😂
Jessica today:
-little kids should be allow to read adult stuff
-Brazilians shouldn't be allowed to read anti-Lula comments on X
🤔

What about United Fruit Company from the '50s 😭😭😭
Jessica is so concerned about calling it a "book ban" she cant even see that what she said should be done is actually what is being done
YT deleting comments saying you can buy them online still 💀
I find that YT tends to delete the more thoughtful comments in favor of broad platitudes, no matter the political persuasion.
The algorithm is interpreting those comments as though it was an ad or s@les pitcg by a m@rketer
@@kwasiopoku8589 If that's true it's really unfortunate. It really drives down the quality of discourse.
8:48 then the parent can check it out from a public library or buy it from the myriad of places they are sold. Parents can do that still in Florida.
Why does Jessica always have to play devils advocate? I don’t think any one agrees with her.
Why do people continually try and argue what parents should be doing with their kids.
What about in cest?
It’s amazing how Jessica can say with a straight face some thing totally unreasonable and call it reasonable. 😂
jessica for thta last statement should be fired!
So she wants to provide the parents a list of every single book in the school and then have each parent decide what books their children cannot check out and she thinks that's more cost effective. 😂 Imagine being the librarian and having to enter in five hundred students different preferences.
Jessica, books have NOT been banned. Order them or buy them online or in store if you want your child to read these books.
What books are you talking about? What books don't you want in elementary school libraries?
You can’t purchase adult toys while underage. If a thirteen year old uses them, it would technically be a crime to supply it as an adult
Theres a difference between going to a movie and a public school library’
Jessica thinks that she turned out OK that is hilarious, she is IVY delusional.

That’s why I don’t let anyone read a bible in my house, if s bible comes into the house, it goes straight into the fireplace.
@DrJay1122 that's ur choice, it's ur home, not gonna knock it. I'd do same thing if someone brought a Quran into my house
Know we know why Jess is the way she is. Reading those Twilight books 😂😂
C'mon. This is ridiculous! Jessica was allowed to read anything when she was growing up and she turned out to be a smart, well rounded, objective person!
lol
Jessica seems pretty scarred permanently.
Well at least we now know what book publishers ban.
Why is Diary of Anne Frank banned? It is history for Pete's sake!
Probably got swept up in the dragnet after being added by people with dubious motives, and stuck due to the portions about her self-discovery as a teenager while being very bored, scared, and hidden. Still needs to be on high school reading lists though, no question.
Yeah ok for perhaps 14 to 18 but under that no way. And thats what they are trying to prevent Jessica!

Then enforce it in movies
Jessica is legitimately crazy
They can't wait an extra year to read them once out of HS school? Give us a break.
No need liberal.
How difficult is it for books to get a PG PG13 and R rated equivalent???
Doesn’t this already exist?
The diary of Amne Franke was removed? 😂
What I have taken from the conversation is that people who oppose book banning have added books such as this for review to prove a point.
these hosts are the worst...couldnt take it
Well we know now who of the two journalists here are rabidly left.
I wonder how many of these children had to be taught about P Stars and water-sports due to the same book banners presidential candidate?
7:14 to be fair it was a anatomy book 😂😂😂

No, she has no kids. She cares deeply about climate change, but flies from IA to DC regularly.
