[ [link removed] ]URGENT: FIGHT FAR-RIGHT CENSORSHIP.
RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP BEFORE AUGUST 31 >>
Friend,
As you’re reading this message, authoritarian groups like Moms for Liberty
and their allied politicians are purging books, harassing educators, and
mobilizing resentment against the full inclusion of Black, indigenous,
people of color, and LGBTQ communities in our schools.
In Temecula, California, a Far Right local school board has abused their
authority by banning history textbooks and firing a school superintendent.
In Martin County, Florida, over 97 books were pulled from school shelves
following complaints from conservative activists. And in Noblesville,
Indiana, a public library stripped over 18,000 books from its selection
for teenagers.
When the Far Right and their allied politicians amass and abuse power to
stoke fears and incite resentment, it’s children who suffer the
consequences. For future generations, nothing less than the freedom to
learn is at stake.
As we speak, People For the American Way is leading the resistance against
pro-censorship groups like Moms For Liberty – but we need your support
today to keep up the fight in communities across the country. [ [link removed] ]Can you
help us reach 300 new members to power our fight against the Far Right’s
hateful censorship campaigns?

But with continued support from members like you, our actions ARE having a
REAL impact. On June 30, People For led a protest in Philadelphia against
a hateful event organized by Moms for Liberty. It was an incredible day:
I witnessed grandparents, local activists, elected officials, and
supporters like you, come together to defend our freedom to learn. Our
movement’s bravery, commitment, and investment in protecting the next
generation was unquestionable. We made our message heard loud and clear:
we will never accept censorship, homophobia, authoritarianism, or bigotry.
Our protest made headlines. Mobilizations like this help us beat
pro-censorship extremists at their own game by denying them the attention
they crave. But our movement is only as strong as our members and the
support you’re able to provide.

our goal – please join us before the August 31 deadline.
As always, thank you for being in this fight with us.
