Florida school restricts access to Amanda Gorman's inaugural poem for young readers.
TL;DR
A parent at a Miami-Dade County public school objected to Amanda Gorman's poem "The Hill We Climb" being in the elementary section of the library, claiming it was not educational and had "indirectly hate messages." The school's materials-review panel decided to move the poem and two other disputed items to the library's middle school section, but did not remove them entirely. Gorman criticized the decision, while the school district stated that no literature had been banned or removed.
