Elmbrook Adds "All Boys Aren't Blue" to High Schools in 21-22 While the Book was Removed From Other Public Schools
"All Boys Aren't Blue" features incest and anal sex.
Community members found the book “All Boys Aren’t Blue” added in the 21-22 year to Elmbrook high schools that reviews point out as pornographic and has been removed from other public schools.
Excerpts from the book below:
Meanwhile, an article was published 10/12/22 that shows communication between Elmbrook’s Chris Thompson and a reporter which (once again) paints parent objection to sexually explicit books as bigoted. Also on 10/12/22, Chris gave a follow up to library changes stemming from the awareness of explicit books that talks about the burden placed on the administration.
Members of the gay community have been pushing back against many things, including explicit books with gay characters nationwide since they groom children for abuse or trafficking.
It appears well intentioned administration members, in the interest of inclusivity, may be blind to the fact that providing books with pornographic content to minors actually sets these minors up as targets for predators and trafficking.
The Elmbrook Parent Network has a Human Trafficking info event on 10/26/22, but it appears Elmbrook has not connected the fact that sexually explicit books in libraries undermine efforts to prevent trafficking.
We encourage community members to review the 6,700 books purchased in 21-22 and raise any concerns.
