The Kids’ Right to Read Project joined with partner organizations in writing a letter to the Fremont, CA School Board, warning against another rejection of the book Bastard Out of Carolina without sound pedagogical reasons. Two years ago the board rejected the book, which has been approved by the district Materials Review Committee for Advanced Placement English classes, in an unprecedented move. KRRP wrote a letter in 2011 about the board’s rejection of Tony Kushner’s pulitzer-prize winning play Angels in America.
