'Velshi Banned Book Club' podcast: 'Hearing about yourself in a book can save lives'
#AliVelshi #BookBans #MSNBC
A great library has books to offend anyone.
We don't want sexually explicit material for kids it's not appropriate and it's certainly not appropriate to groom them. For some reason the liberals don't understand. But then again when you're brain-dead there's not much you can do about that.
@@bobevans9955Except for the BuyBull, the filthiest, most disgusting bit of evil garbage ever written!!!
✋️✝️🫠🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈💋
i prefer books without the letters L…….G……..B……….T……and Q in them.
Is there no material that’s inappropriate for a public school library in your opinion?
@@reason6835 Fair point. And age is relevant, too.
Exactly right! The second it's banned, it's the thing kids want to see the most.
so what's your problem then.
This Rep. Party really needs to be voted out. It’s disturbing.
Why are they banning "The Rosa Parks Story" and "Letter From A Birmingham Jail"? Ridiculous! Why wouldn't you want your children to learn how one person can make a change for the better and they could be that person.
They arent banned
They are in Florida @@brenden4915
@brenden4915 please check the list of books taken from schools in FL and the fact that libraries in Fort Worth are closed meaning no access to those books.
@sgpoet47 no books are banned. Most libraries currently do nothing to improve the economy. They close all the time
@@brenden4915 School libraries are not meant to improve the economy. Yes books are being banned in school libraries. You are uninformed.
The Brooklyn NY has a program which allows students to borrow banned books.
I ❤ New York
We support Candidates who Can Read … And Not a Four Time Indicted Grifter who CAN’T !
OK cultist
Or won’t!
North, We know Biden can read poorly as he can't even speak without a Teleprompter!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
THE 1619 PROJECT was a difficult for me to read. Everyone should read it.
everyone should also read the scathing responses, rebuking its sick and twisted premises. next you will be telling us that 'white fragility' should be another must-read at our schools
It's weird how people can pick apart books because they don't align with their personal beliefs. So does somebody want to explain video games?
Best thing is when they ban books it just increases people's interest in them and makes them more popular to get.
Keep on biting yourselves in the rear Republicans.
No books are being "banned".
Bless you Ali Velshi for taking up this issue. I’ve enjoyed your book series on your show. I’ll be tuning in to your podcast.
Books have been the joy of my life…
My dad used to buy any book that made it on to the Index of Forbidden Books, even dumb anti-Catholic crud like The Jesuit Papal Octopus and The Shadow of the Red Hat. The minute it made it on to the Index, somebody made a book sale!
why do people always quote their parents as if they are some magical source of wisdom? for all we know, your dad also tampered with chickens.
Did the schools ban The Art Of The Deal?
Fight F45CISM!!
Vote 💙.
😂
You mean vote red 😷💉😷💉😷💉🇺🇦🇺🇦
@@danialhillmann5374
Why do states like Texas and Florida bother banning books? Why not just stop teaching kids to read?
No books are banned, cultist.
Don't give our governor any ideas.
They didn't do a good job to begin with. What is the literacy rate in these backwoods states?
Control the information, you can control their minds. Religion has being doing that for centuries.
There is a difference between banning books, which prevents their legal sale, and not putting them on school library shelves. No books have been banned anywhere in the US.
It always burns me up when folks say if someone brings something from the “dark side” or “controversial”parts of American culture or history that that person is unpatriotic and doesn’t love America. That’s BS usually. I truly believe in my heart if you are going to love this country, then you should love everything about it, warts and all. Love it in spite of its imperfections. Love it in spite of its wrongdoings, missteps, and terrible happenings, not because of it. We should love it enough to know that it’s only constant is that it will change. The America that once was is not the America that is today, or will be in the future. Love it enough to want it to do and to be better than it was. Love it enough to hope that its best days might come long after you and those you love are gone.
Imagine if anyone actually said that…
That is being a true Patriot. Not all of this performative flag hugging & denying the truth.
An elementary school library is one thing, a public library is a different story but who is the god that determines which books should or shouldn't be banned? Like Veshi says, ban a book and that is the book that children will want to read.
People should be reading 1984 and "animal farm"
🐑😷💉😷💉😷💉
Fahrenheit 451 should be at the very top of that list. It is most appropriate to this topic.
@@StephenLewisful yeah except not a single book is being banned just letting parents decide what's best for their children
Though if your the government it's best to brainwash the children
@@StephenLewisful I haven't read Fahrenheit 451, but I've heard it's very inflammatory.
@@andrewstevenson118 Just a little more than needed to bake cookies.
Like Velshi says… it’s the context.
Ali is great! I didn't know, will Follow the podcast! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
In the public library I was a member of from 1st grade onward, there were areas of the library restricted until I was 12 years old. Then I had access to the entire library. Thank you libraries!
Book banners do not read books.
As someone outside the USA I always thought the GOP was about small government, and freedom not censorship and heavy government interference.
So if I get this right, for the GOP guns are fine but books are scary when it comes to kids.
Presumably, the same people who can't change a TV channel to avoid seeing something they don't want to also cannot put down a book without reading it cover to cover, if they ever start.
"These books make it easier for you to learn about other people ..." I believe covers the would-be arsonists' objections to all information they do not control.
I love banned book lists. Its my must read list. When I was 8 my mother took me to adult section town library, (I had read everything in child section) got me an adult card, wrote on back "You dont censor, PARENTS ONLY" and I was cut loose.
I read adult books and great classics when I was very young that I found myself. I continued to read my whole life. Many Books/Movies are largely tradegies and struggles of life.
The worst part is that anyone can challenge a book. Kids or not.
That has actually been the case in a lot of these instances. One woman that didn’t even have school aged children had like 50 books banned. I don’t need to tell you what were the topics.
Thanks Willie and gentlemen
I sang Flamy Grant's number one hit song "Good Day" at the Daycare Center's Drag Queen Story Hour today! The children ADORE it and sang along for 3 encores!!! ❤
.....and Trump is going to prison...

Banning books in America
What’s wrong with that
EVERYTHING
Except they aren’t banned “in America.” They’re just not allowed to be in public schools. Anyone can read these books on their own.
What's next? Burning "witches" at the stake.
Don't give them ideas
NEVER ban any book.
Period
Especially *Dreams of My Real Father*
So just allow ALL BOOKS in public school libraries? You really sure you want to do that?
Good thing no books are banned.
Books and libraries have always been a refuge from abusive households.
If you hide your children from the real world you are not allowing them to form their own opinions and surely they will become easy pickings for the wolves of the world. Grow up people and stop being so conservatively naive.
How 'bout Howard Zinn's Peoples History of the United States, a best seller years ago that was second to the Bible in sales? It was long banned from any popular ratings, e.g. the NYTimes list!
Ali is great
Great!!
so much hate 💔
The 1619 Project is a damned poor example of free thought.
Books have been since they were first created.
Humans have always given full rein to whatever comes through mind & heart but could never stand anybody else doing precisely that ... and fight for "human" "rights" not to be hindered by whatsoever as if all the sovereignity there is belongs in one's own self all alone
The first book to be discussed in the "Velshi Banned in US Public Schools Book Club": Bible
And the buybull is the filthiest, most violent, and disgusting of them all.
✋️✝️🫠🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈💋
You mean the public school books that teach 9 year olds how to Blow each other!
Utah and Texas are the states where the "Bible" has been banned from a school library. Seriously... let that fact sink into your brain.
The Bible shouldn’t be taught in public schools either!
There is nothing wrong with having the Bible in public school libraries. It should be in the appropriate section, though. Science Fiction. It should never be taught as if it's a Science or a History book.
Every American should read The 1619 Project, no matter what their race. For violence and serial content, the Bible would have to go first.
What happened to enforcement of our laws!! The government officials and the courts must address the illegal activities that are being carried out against the citizens who have payed for the property and the buildings that not only store the property but also provide the workplaces for the government employees who are responsible for removing our property from our ability to use without government intervention and violating our rights and laws that protect us from discrimination and harassment by any person who has a criminal interest or a personal grievance of a personal nature! The courts must protect the citizens rights and uphold our constitutional protections to prevent discrimination against anyone from being free to move in our country! The government and courts cannot enforce the laws upon the citizens with civil servants without giving us the freedom and protection from harassment and discrimination perpetrated by the same individuals! Criminal acts are just as dangerous when the government or justice system perpetrate them and should be punished with more severe consequences because they have the power to impose their will on others who depend upon them to protect our communities and citizens from harm in any form! If you commit crimes in a court house you will be charged with a crime and processed for the violation and possibly imprisonment! No discussion or refusal to disperse the law upon the private citizen! Witnessing a criminal act and not perusing it for criminal activity and protecting the public interest is a violation of duty and places the public interest at risk for discrimination and harassment in a public interest matter that will deny the personal safety and constitutional rights that are guaranteed by our country and its laws!
Let us be victims! ( the black community)
Velshi's "banned book club" is a fraud. No books have been banned. Some objectionable books aren't in schools, but parents can still buy the books, if they wish.
There acting like the movie "FOOTLOOSE"
Crikey, is America increasingly becoming an extreme right wing nation?
Nobody. And I mean nobody…has milked race-baiting for decades for financial gain like Sharpton.
Thanks

This is what you get when you quote Morons.
"2000 Mules", should be required reading
It's a lie.
2000 Mules is nothing but BS propaganda with no proof. It's one thing to make an accusation but a court of law demands evidence. Under oath Rudy admitted he lied. Everywhere else he denies it. So sick of the GOP thinking the American people are so stupid they will believe anything. Over 60 State, Federal and the Supreme Court said they have no credible evidence.

Common sense must rule the day. We certainly don't want our 9 year old boys reading Playboy. Just an example. Reading, writing and arithmetic.
What's your objection to Playboy? It's not Hustler.
I doubt there has ever been a Playboy Magazine in any school library.
@@karentrimmer Not on the shelf anyway. But I want to know what's his objection to the magazine.
"I cant believe I left my vacation for this"-Joe Biden surveying the Maui fire devastation
BS
@@karentrimmer👈BOT
He didn’t even throw paper towels at their heads, like Frumo in PR, or promise McDonald’s & then skip out on the bill, like Frump did in E Palestine.
This book is not band, it can be purchased on Amazon, eBay, and a lot of other sites. This is a racist book and lacks scholarly rigor. It should not be used as a textbook because of that fact. Other than that, it is not a band and can be purchased by anyone who wants to promote racism.
I thought a band book was a biography of the Rolling Stones?

You are so Christian like aren’t you?
By the way, your quote has to be banned
Troll. Thought you were in rehab somewhere
Thoughts & prayers to the orange defendant. 91 charges must have him changing his depends even more than usual.
Why does MSNBC report almost nothing about Biden? Something embarrassing happened?
Because this is state-run TV. You got to keep your sheep in line.
You do understand that "not report... nothing" is a double negative, right?
@@TruthrConsequences Ahaha... right. Edited. Thanks.
The dog ate the GOP evidence. There is nothing credible to report.
A speech impediment is not required to land a job on this network, but it helps.
Books are not being banned. There are no laws being passed banning the importation, sale, possession or transfer of books within states. What we're talking about here is what books to include in the school curriculums. The school library is part and parcel of the school curriculum.
Exactly! Thank you.
Please explain why they are banning "The Story of Rosa Parks"? Do they not want children to know that one person, standing up for justice (or sitting), can change their country for the better, no matter who they are. I read the book in 7th grade. Totally inspirational. They're also banning "Letter from a Birmingham Jail."
@@karentrimmerHey libturd! If it's legal to buy and own, it's not banned.
@@EH-ry6qh No books are banned no matter how many times you lie.
Nice word salad, but books are being banned by Trumpie brownshirts. Stop lying----to yourself, first of all, I suspect.
Maybe releasing water to put out a fire can save lives too.
….but we can’t. Cuz you know ….equity.
Thanks
~Jim Eagle
Equity is the quality of being fair and impartial. So... what exactly are trying to say?
Glad to see parents are getting a say in what's appropriate for their own children
The problem lies in parents making decisions for *other* children, not just theirs.
Any parent who has bothered to pay attention to what books their children are reading, has ALWAYS had a say in what's appropriate for their child.
@@wtfisthishandlebulIshitwell good news if your a parent you can get whatever books you find appropriate for your children
@@danialhillmann5374At the school library. That's where they belong.
@@TruthrConsequences that's good
Is Velshi a Top or a Bottom? I wouldn't be Hedging my Bet to say definitely a Bottom!
You Groomers are almost as bizarre as the Incels.
Are you asking Velshi for a date?

372 days of vacation since the Jan 20 2021 inauguration

This Velshi bit should be pulled down entirely for misinformation. It's complete fiction 😅
Groomers be *big mad* .

I'm sad to hear that the good rev has contracted *AIDs*
Get well soon Al ❤
None of these books are banned. You can purchase them at you local book store or online. "Mostly peaceful protests" Velshi's full of crap.
