Amanda Gorman's poem 'The Hill We Climb' was the highlight of Joe Biden's inauguration. But elementary school students in Florida are no longer allowed to read the poem in the classrooms.
A mother from Miami Lakes, Florida, wrote a letter of complaint demanding that the book be made impossible for students at the school her children attend. In justification, she states that the poem is "not educational", but "indirectly spreads hate messages" The dispute over books in school libraries has escalated into an arena of the culture war.
