Student members of the on-campus Unlocked Library book club will read and discuss commonly challenged books.
SOUTHLAKE, Texas — As books in public school libraries face a surge in challenges in Texas and across the nation, a group of students at Carroll Senior High School have created a new way to read and discuss commonly challenged books.‘The Unlocked Library.’
“We are passionate about these books. We have plenty of students who want these books on campus,” Kadiyala said. “Not having access to books like this as a student, it does a lot to not see yourself at your school.” The students organized, filed paperwork and received support from their choir teacher to start the club. They’ll meet after school and discuss titles on their list of readings, including: “All Boys Aren’t Blue,” “Gender Queer,” “Out of Darkness” and “Between the World and Me.”Nick Ferrara, a member of the book club, said it’s been eye-opening to recognize that students do indeed have the ability to choose what they can read in school.
