“What the parents of the school district really want and are focused on are very different things than what we’re seeing is coming in from the outside,” activist Katie Paris said.
Paris is the founder of Red Wine and Blue, an advocacy group that encourages suburban women and moms to stay informed on local, state and national politics.
She started a campaign called Book Ban Busters, where she and other parents across the country fight against these bans. She said from the research her team has done, they’ve learned that statewide and nationwide groups are helping grow the anti-CRT movement.
