- For a young Taylor Brorby, author of “Boys and Oil,” his local North Dakota library was a treasure trove and a safe haven. Young people in North Dakota today won’t encounter the same kind of library. North Dakota libraries are under attack. Last year, two pieces of legislation took aim squarely at libraries and librarians. While just one became a law, the two bills have already done their job. Libraries across North Dakota are self-censoring - choosing not to keep books that could leave them vulnerable. This is just the beginning - for the rest of the nation.

#NorthDakota #Books #BannedBooks
Had the great pleasure of teaching with force-of-nature Taylor in SC. Thank you and Velshi for outing this harmful and ignorance-based censorship!
When libraries were facing huge budget cuts under Reagan and the excuse was lack of funds (that we knew was caused by deep tax cuts/breaks for the wealthy), my mother noted when we stood in front of the closed library “During the Great Depression, the libraries remained open except on Sunday- all day and into the evening. Now we’re closing them down for days at a time so the wealthy can keep more than they can ever spend.” My military GOP dad introduced me to banned books, celebrating education and freedom of thought and speech. SMH.
Thank you, Mr. Velshi, for highlighting this horrible problem. I escaped bullying and a host of other problems through books as a child. Our branch librarian did guide me, as did teachers in my elementary school, to reading materials. The whole world, and the universe, can be discovered in books
My grandmother was a librarian.
You say librarians would go to jail if that law passed. I see my grandmother, in my minds eye. Raised in a Quaker household, on a farm, very straight laced, confused by the world of the 60s sometimes, being arrested, appearing in court, being in JAIL?
She would find books for me, specially. When I was watching Zoro on TV, she ordered a book from the main library of original stories of Zoro.
The most outrageous books at that time, that I knew of, were science fiction. My favorite author, Andre Norton, would create and describe characters from multiple ethnicities.
All the science fiction books in that library took up one tall shelf near the front desk. They were all hardbacks, with plastic protecting their beautiful covers. One of the librarians would repair the covers of those books if they ever became damaged or worn. My grandmother mentioned, once, how those who read those books were so appreciative of her restoring the beauty of those book's covers.
My grandmother didn't read science fiction. But she and her co workers cared for those sometimes outlandish books sometimes with more care than some other books in the library. Because the small group of people who did read them obviously prized those books and held them in great regard.
Someone would put people like my grandmother in jail?
When I was growing up, my town library was my refuge. Not because I was part of a marginalized group, but because I lived in an abusive household. I spent hours and hours after school at the library instead of going home. I would have a particular interest, ask the librarian, and find a book. As a single-digit child, I was able to spend my after school hours reading until I had to go home for dinner. I am appalled that people want to limit the access to books.
In the 10th grade, I wrote a 20-page essay on censorship. I got an A++ for it. Later, in college, I plagiarized myself and presented it to fulfill an assignment, and again got an A. When the assignment came up, I thought, "Oh, I've already written that." I wish I still had it around.
How much time did you spend where they kept Penthouse?
@@PoliticallyHomeless1 r u Beavis or Butt-Head?
willing to bet if you sat down and wrote it out again, you'd find you still have it all in your head.
Not as good as the paper with the big A on it however. I am finding myself echoing my high school and college self on things I covered then (Like 1984 or Fahrenheit 451)
The librarian is there to decide who has access. I suspect you have never entered a library. Those of limited means also use the library as a resource.@@PoliticallyHomeless1
I, too, spent many hours in a library reading anything and everything I could get my hands on. I was teased and mocked ruthlessly as an overweight girl, so reading was my escape... and my passion. I preferred the classics such as the Bronte sisters and Louisa May Alcott, but I read everything, including all of Little House on the Prairie and the Paddington series. I'm both saddened and disgusted by groups that wish to strip away the rights of our children to read what they wish to read
This is how you keep folks ignorant. Limit what they can read.
We are living through Farenheit 451.
They do not know what education mean, why should they imprison librarian. What a shame on these people who do not know what they are pushing or telling on children. So foolish.
Not as a former special librarian, but as a lifetime reader (reading is a super power), I consider libraries sacred places.
I have always thought of libraries as being sacred spaces 💜
Me too. After 40 years in the profession, I will be retiring in the next 2-3 years. Libraries have always been my refuge. I don’t think that will ever change.
How do all these people become so hateful? What happened in their life that makes them the evil adults they are today like moms for liberty members?
Good questions. Answer, Trump let them loose.
Thats just how the propaganda potrays them. You are being played. How is that not obvious to you yet? Not american?
Two words, Religion and Trump
@@BridgetKF is being indoctrinated by a political ideology count as a religion? If so then gongrats! Who do you praise? Yourself? Thats how most narcissist do it
They’ll argue that the liberals and the woke crowd did this to them. Honestly, who knows. They’ll go so far to say they’re being replaced.
Librarians are the front-line defenders of the First Amendment. Bless them.
I donated to our libraries for their fight.
I see TH-cam censored all the comments
No they are not.
No they aren't.
They're just there for the meager pension for when they retire.
I thought he called them "mobs for liberty" at first. Actually, that sounds like an apt moniker.
MSDNC.......
This is the "Land of the Free"...right? Seriously starting to have my doubts.
Many right-wingers are more of a "Freedom for me Not for thee" types
My sanctuary state of Oregon has countered the right wing tactics in education by ending the reading and math proficiency standards for high school graduation in order to help our POC student community be more competitive academically. Equity for all is why I vote blue. 💙💙
Why is not knowing if you are capable with math and reading equity? Once they graduate they will have to go into the real world not knowing where they stand in those subjects.
And students there are worse off
now just do away with walking and talking standards i think hygeine is white supramacy too, slobbering vegetables covered in feces shpuld be the new norm
You do understand that ignorant Americans are completely incapable of recognizing sarcasm, right?
Are you being ironic? How can they be more competitive academically when they are not required to meet basic standards? This doesn't help anybody.
I'm appalled that books have been banned! The Diary of Anne Frank, Mouse, Beloved among so many others being banned ANYWHERE by ANYONE causes me to weep copiously.
Only the ignorant and corrupt ban books. Smart folks just categorize them properly.
As a Democrat I prefer that we just ban speech and embrace cancel culture!
These "books" as you call them, are some of the most vile ever to be published.
Apparently you've not seen nor heard excerpts read from each/every one nationwide? At school board meetings, city council meeting, and in/from and BY numerous members of Our Congress.
In fact..many rated (12 and up) and read at these meetings were so vile they were forced to stop! In Congress, as read in session the "bleep outs" outweighed words actually allowed spoken INTO RECORD.
Wake TF UP! Relying on msLSD for "news" is beyond ridiculous🤦♂️
@@PoliticallyHomeless1 Removing books from libraries is considered banning them.
@@TruthrConsequences No it's not.
@@PoliticallyHomeless1 I understand that you are not that bright, but when a SINGLE parent can force the removal of a book from a public library... that is effectively banning that book from the public library.
It all comes from down to choice & freedom IMO. Don’t want to read a subject? Don’t read it. Don’t want an abortion? Don’t get one. Do what you like & let everyone else make their own choices.
I remember back in the late 1960s when I was in high school, the most read book by my fellow classmates was a banned book "Catcher in the Rye" which tells me that no matter how many books they ban, there will always be a way to get hold of such books and they will be read by exactly the people they are trying to keep from reading them. It's so easy now to get whatever information one wants on the internet and unless those censors go after internet access, the information will flow.
Thats when democrats had jim crow laws
Your comment, well really it is a statement....has nothing to do with book banning/imprisonment of librarians. @@Gabedudley1
Taylor Brby shares insights into the impact of libraries on his life, the absurdity of the legislation, and the importance of people speaking up to protect the democratic values associated with libraries.
Such a good video thank you ❤
If you're going to ban books (which should never be done) the first book on the ban list should be the bible. All of them. Every version, every religion.
Once again, Democrats show their hatred for the first amendment.
"Ban the Bible! Regulate speech! Take the guns away! Democracy!"
Actually, since I became an atheist, I've started collecting many religious texts.
@@alphabravo8703 they have some good moral stories, but otherwise, full of all the filth these self righteous harpies claim they want to ban
Ban the Bible!!! Criminalize hate speech!!! repeal the 1st Amendment!!!! Vote blue💙💙💙💙💙
Those texts should be read as literature from an ancient civilization and placed in the mythology section. There's a lot one can't understand about our cultural history unless you are familiar with ancient mythology, including ancient Roman and Greek as well as Norse mythology and much of ancient middle eastern mythology. But it is definitely all mythology.

Love ya Velshi, thanks for all U do.
Just entered the public domain, published in 1928, DH Lawrence's Lady Chatterly's Lover. Still banned/challenged...
These people are still after books nearly a century later
(BTW not as virulent but just as harmful are challenges from the left...usually due to antiquated attitudes about race, racial slurs, and violence against women)
Something that is inappropriate for kids isn't 'banned'. You wouldn't say that R rated movies are banned.
if you don't want your kids reading something, keeping them ignorant, that's for you to decide, you have no right deciding what someone else's child can read.@@winstonsmith6607
oh? who is "the left" you refer to?
@@winstonsmith6607 Banned: Embargoed, proscribed, disallowed blocked...A book that has been disallowed in any venue is banned. Your attempt to distract from the FACT that even if you approve of banning whatever it is because it is your opinion that counts , stil means it is banned.
The comparison to rating system from movies is wrong. I wonder why you think its okay to "rate" movies but not books. Instead of rating books, as they do now, you believe the books should be banned
@@pmclaughlin4111 No I don't. I believe books SHOULD have ratings. Once you turn 18, you should be allowed to read pretty much anything. As for the word 'banned', I think I'll be an ahole and use it as a synonym for everything. If the bathroom is locked, I'll say that I'm banned from entering. If my car won't start because it's too cold for the battery, I'll say I'm banned from driving. If I forget my wallet, I'll say I'm banned from eating. Words matter. And it's effed up how they're using the word 'banned' when the issue is about age appropriateness
You can’t control every aspect of your child’s life. I trust the librarians who pick the books. When my daughter was in third grade, a fellow classmate in the lunchroom cafeteria told her how a female gets pregnant! So much for me picking the time and place for that conversation.
Exactly!
Banning books is like being evangelical I.e. imposing your own world view on everyone starting with the most defenseless I.e. children.

Quote from the Audubon Society website on the Common Grackle:
"Throughout the east and midwest, this big blackbird is a very familiar species on suburban lawns, striding about with deliberate steps as it searches for insects. Common Grackles often nest in small colonies, and several males may perch in adjacent treetops to sing their creaking, grating songs. Big flocks are often seen flying overhead in the evening, heading for major communal roosts, especially from late summer through winter."
So disheartening to see people arguing that books are not banned if people can buy them.
Pure fascism defines the modern day Republican Party !
Thank you Ali for focusing on this incredibly important important issue.
Access to bookstores on rural America is limited. Where O live there is Walmart, which has a very limited selection, and a small used bookstore. If you are of limited means buying books online is also limited due to the expense. Libraries make books available to everyone.
Same!

Of course it's going to pass that's why you need to file a lawsuit Also all of the more reason why to buy these books and support these authors and give them all away for free . For those who will take them quite sure they will . Here's a good idea give them away right in front of the libraries .
Books help create possibilities in your life. Learn, learn, learn!! Nobody can take that from you!

Don't just take people's word for it one way or the other. Use the device you are currently using to look up images and illustrations from some of the books that are being removed from libraries and judge for yourself if you think it is appropriate for a school library or a young person section of a public library. Check one title for an example, Gender Quee (TH-cam is going to remove my comment if I type the rest of the title, oddly enough), and see if you would approve it for your child.
The last thing the Christian Taliban wants is for people to think for themselves.

Grackle, Quiscalus quiscula. A gregarious bird found over most of North America east of the Rockies in summer. It is a member of the Tropical family which also includes blackbirds, cowbirds, meadow larks and orioles. If you live east of the Rockies in North America, you've probably seen and heard grackles or other members of this family.

look, i agree in spirit but...lets be honest with each other...kids dont read books no more (and if they do they just download whatever they want as pdf). the library isnt the hub of intellectual curiosity that it used to be. the loss is symbolic but in actuality this doesnt make a dent
I would not be so sure about that.
"kids dont read books no more"
Apparently not.
My granddaughter is 8 years old. She reads 3-6 books per week. 80% of them come from a library - she visits the school library and the public library every week.
Not all folks have access to the internet at home. Many use their local libraries.
@@jamesharms748 according to statistics 90% of americans have access to the internet. of that remaining 10%, im assuming a lot of them are old people or people living somewhere in the swamps of louisiana or something (highly doubtful they are clamoring for "books"). in the venn diagram of "children with no access to the internet home and/or mobile" + "children actually interested in reading physical books" the line wouldnt intersect at "many". "many" use their local libraries to either have a quiet place to study in peace or to get online. technically you could go to the library, use their wifi for a few minutes and download the "banned books" for free on your phone. which was my whole entire point. a few anecdotal examples of some random kid "allegedly" borrowing 6 books a week arent gonna change that. so to reiterate my point "the loss is symbolic but in actuality this doesnt make a dent"
