       Greg Sargent: DeSantis’s book banners face a tough new foe: Angry moms with lawyers"In one of the big political surprises of 2023, pockets of stiff resistance have sprung up to defend teachers, textbooks, novels and libraries against censorship efforts across the country. This liberal counter-mobilization is substantially less organized than the right’s culture-warring, but it has great untapped potential for Democrats.These efforts just took an important turn, with a lawsuit filed by Florida parents in federal court Wednesday to try to stop book bans in school libraries in Escambia County, red-leaning terrain in the state’s panhandle. The suit could become a model to challenge bans across Florida and elsewhere."#Desantis #florida #censorship #freespeech #penamericahttps://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/05/17/book-bans-desantis-lawsuit-pen-america/
