Members of the “parental rights” activist organization Moms for Liberty reported Florida school librarians to law enforcement for allegedly distributing “pornography” to minors. The librarians were not. The “pornography” the Moms for Liberty activists were referring to was a young adult novel.
Moms for Liberty is described by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-government extremist group because of its anti-LGBTQ+ positions and calls for book bans and topic restrictions in schools.
A Popular Information video taken from a police officer’s body cam shows what went down, highlighting the group’s aggressive stance against any educational materials they find objectionable.
Jennifer Tapley, a member of the Santa Rosa County chapter of Moms for Liberty, called the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office, saying a crime was being done at a local school.
