In part two of this insightful discussion, Kathy Meckley and Keith Johnson return to the table with the "Misunderstood" team to continue the debate on explicit content in Franklin County Public Schools. The conversation shifts towards the complexities of parental involvement, the role of librarians, and the community's ability to weigh in on which books are appropriate for students. With real-world examples, such as the controversial book Push, the group tackles tough questions about the balance between protecting children and fostering empathy, and whether schools should be making decisions about sensitive content. This episode also explores alternatives to graphic books and the possibility of providing different options to the community. Tune in to part two for a thought-provoking conversation about censorship, education, and the future of Franklin County's students.
