The life story of Rosa Parks has enduring lessons to teach us and this biography should appeal to kids, parents, and teachers. She and her husband decided to put her kids in public school to expose them to different cultures and viewpoints and to learn from the experiences of others, she said. None of those books have been found in Duval Schools, however, according to the governor’s list of districts with the books and Duval Schools’ online catalog.
Duval Schools says its intensive, ongoing review of books — during which about 10,000 books are currently available to students — is necessary to comply with state law and to “ensure teachers and school leaders do not have to worry about jeopardizing their career because a book may be construed to be in violation of Florida law. And while critics of the proposal worry that these restrictions would target materials featuring themes of race and gender, the bill, now headed to a Democratic-held senate, has little chance of becoming law.

In the first sweeping history of Parks’s life, Theoharis shows us…[that] Parks not only sat down on the bus; she stood on the right side of justice for her entire life.For her role in igniting the successful campaign, Parks became known as the “mother of the civil rights movement.

The debate about whether this book was banned in Duval Schools went viral on Twitter, prompting Duval Schools to respond that it never purchased “The Life of Rosa Parks. The district says this wasn’t a formal review against new state standards because they didn’t exist at the time. So Rosa always was upset about how they had to be doing different thing then whites like separated bathrooms, restaurants and even water fountains.
First grade teacher Maggie Donovan (SNCC veteran) introduces her students to the fight to desegregate the buses, placing Rosa Parks in the context of the larger community efforts. And lastly, I have read a ton of books on Rosa Parks (most picture books, because I'm a teacher) so I didn't learn a lot of new information on her. This act sparked the Civil Rights Movement and caused her to be titled the "mother or First Lady of the Civil Rights Movement. Some of the material was provided by the Florida Freedom to Read Project, a progressive parent group that has fought book ban efforts in the state, and confirmed by The Times. series provides a quick, but comprehensive look at Rosa Parks' life and her contributions to civil rights that extend beyond the famous bus incident.Best of all, Theoharis explodes all of the clichés surrounding a historical figure whom most students thought they knew. Teachers could be charged with felonies for content deemed pornographic under a long-standing anti-pornography law and risk penalties to their teaching licenses for books that violate other Florida laws limiting instruction on sexual orientation, gender identity, and race and racism. At the time, there was a law that said a Black person had to give up their seat if a white person needed it.
