What's different is that in the first wave, all sorts of people were hit. Now, all the cooperative, logical people are vaccinated, and most of the people who end up in hospitals got their kicking and screaming.

When anti-racism is considered offensive, that tells you how far we still have to go.
The grill the teachers are supposed to use wants to ensure that each book provides multiple perspectives. That is great for an academic tome, which provides ultimately no viewpoint, but not great reading for youngsters. Multiple perspectives for them would be more engaging by providing multiple books, each with its own perspective. In other words, stop censoring any books, but ensure that teachers' libraries include a variety of perspectives so that students can explore their world through multiple viewpoints.

This is HUGE. Yes, it's imperfect. Yes, there are loopholes. No, the world won't change overnight. And, yes, it will take a decade or two to turn this framework into something with teeth that at least limits the abuse. But it is happening, and that in itself is HUGE.
