Seventy-six percent of Iowa voters agree that “state lawmakers banning books at schools is a form of censorship and goes against American values of freedom of speech and expression,” according to the survey. Seventy-seven percent said they strongly or somewhat opposed lawmakers banning books in schools, while only 23% support such bans.
The results are in line with other polls highlighting the deep unpopularity of the Republican-led book ban movement.

It might make their kids feel uncomfortable. Reason enough, they figure, to whitewash history.
When Ms. Lucy arrived for her first class, on Feb. 3, 1956, the civil rights struggle was focused on the Montgomery bus boycott in support of Rosa Parks, who was arrested when she refused to give up her seat on a city bus to a white person. But Ms. Lucy drew national coverage in her own right.
The Alabama student government called for observance of law and order, but protests and scattered vandalism erupted on and near the campus, waged by students and outsiders, on Ms. Lucy’s first two days in class. On the third day, when she was hit with debris, she made it to her classes but had to be spirited from the campus crouching in the back of a police car.
That night, Alabama’s board of trustees suspended her. The NAACP defense fund filed a suit contending that the university had conspired with rioters to prevent her admission. There was no evidence for that, and the accusation was subsequently dropped, but the university expelled Ms. Lucy at the end of February on the grounds that she had defamed it. [emphasis added]
