Book Bans: History Cover Up

Ruby Bridges on book bans: > The excuse that I’ve heard them give is that my story actually makes, especially White kids, feel bad about themselves… > > “I believe that it’s just an excuse not to share the truth—to cover up history. I believe that history is sacred—that none of us should have the right to change or alter history in any way.” via **[Juliane McShane, Mother Jones](https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/04/ruby-bridges-blasts-book-bans-as-ridiculous-attempts-to-cover-up-history/)\*\*
