Loud cheers erupted inside a packed high school gymnasium after the school division in Manitoba's second-largest city rejected to a call to remove books dealing with sexuality and gender identity from libraries.
An audience member embraces Penni Jones, left, who spoke against banning books at a Brandon School Division board of trustees meeting at Vincent Massey High School on Tuesday, May 23, 2023.Loud cheers erupted inside a packed high school gymnasium after the Brandon School Division rejected to a call to remove books dealing with sexuality and gender identity from libraries.
Before the vote, board chair Linda Ross said there were many "errors and untruths" in Hackenschmidt's presentation. Whitney Hodgins attended the meeting to show her opposition to the proposal to a call to review and remove books dealing with issues of sexuality and gender identity. Hundreds of people attended the meeting in the gymnasium at Vincent Massey High School in Brandon, Man."I have always told my children that school is their safe place aside from our home," she said.
Several speakers at the meeting criticized trustee Breeanna Sieklicki for comments she made at the division's meeting on May 8, when she said it took 'courage' for delegates to come forward calling for a committee to review and remove books in school libraries.
