School Board votes to remove Cuba book from all Miami-Dade schools. Florida

Tagged: , ,

“A controversial children’s book about Cuba — and similar books from the same series about other countries — must be removed from all 33 Miami-Dade school libraries that stock it, following a closely divided School Board vote today that split Hispanic and non-Hispanic members in a frenzied political atmosphere.

Only the Cuba book was ever reviewed through the district’s appeals process, but books about nations such as Vietnam, Greece, and China were also removed under the vote.”
