Right-wing group, Moms for Liberty has been working in recent years to remove what they say are objectionable books from local libraries, but it turns out that a tiny number of them are responsible for most of the book ban requests. Analysis conducted by the Washington Post found that only 11 people were responsible for more than half of more than 1,000 different book challenges analyzed by the paper, with one person responsible for 92 challenges just by himself. Sixteen percent of all objections claimed that schoolbooks violated either state obscenity laws or legislation passed in the past three years restricting education on race, racism, sexuality, and gender identity. "Calling books 'illegal” was the ninth-most common reason employed by book challengers. This tactic was especially popular in Florida and Texas: Of the 153 complaints contending books were illegal, 56 percent were brought in Florida and 18 percent in Texas. These serial filers relied on a network of volunteers gathered under the aegis of conservative groups such as Moms for Liberty. A record 2,571 unique books were targeted for censorship in 2022, a 38% increase from 2021 when 1,858 titles were targeted. #Queer Up Education
