Amanda Gorman's Poem Sparks Controversy and Restrictions in Schools

A complaint filed against Amanda Gorman's book, "The Hill We Climb," has led to restricted access to the book at a Miami-Dade County school. The complaint alleged that the book was "not educational," contained indirect hate speech, and shouldn't be in schools. After a review, the school decided to retain the book but only if it's shelved in an area reserved for middle school students. The complaint also targeted four other books, and most of them were restricted to middle school students. Gorman is pushing back on the decision, stating that a school book ban is any action taken against a book that leaves access to a book restricted or diminished.
