"You can replace these harmful Scholastic book fairs with helpful, wholesome book fairs, with 500 books that have all been vetted and screened to take out all of the nasty pornography and the critical race theory and the race stuff," Cameron said in a video posted to X (formerly Twitter).
Scholastic responded by putting certain books in a separate collection for its elementary school fairs and letting school officials decide whether to include any or all of the collection. Scholastic was criticized by advocates for freedom of expression and didn't satisfy those who find such content objectionable either. Scholastic announced that next year, these books won't be separated but mixed with others, but individual schools will still be able to decide what titles to include.
