11:06Now PlayingIn a controversial move that's stirring debates, the Davis School District in Utah removed Bibles from elementary and middle school libraries, citing "vulgarity or violence." The decision came after a parent leveraged a state law against "pornographic or indecent" content in a book challenge. The reviewing committee stated that although the Bible didn’t outrightly violate the law, it was deemed too complex for younger students and should be reserved for high school. In an unexpected twist, another parent appealed against the ban, and a new committee was formed to review it. On June 1st, Republican state representative Ken Ivory, who previously disapproved of the banning, released a statement reversing his position on the ban. In his statement, Ivory wrote that the Bible is a "challenging read" for children and that the religious book is "best taught, and best understood, in the home, and around the hearth, as a family.” This ban is part of a broader trend that has seen books by black and LGBT authors also being removed under the same law.
