 "Censoring science and erasing America's history at national parks are direct threats to everything these amazing places, and our country, stand for," Spears said.

Indiana high school cancels Jodi Picoult play in act she calls 'censorship'

"Even with the licensed edits, there were still sexual innuendos and alcohol references that I couldn't, in good conscience, allow in a public school performance," Fewell said… 

In a Facebook post earlier this month, Picoult alleged that the complaint about the play came from a single parent who objected to the original text having a non-binary character. The amended production did not reference the character's gender identity, according to Picoult…

Energy Department Tries to Stifle Workers’ Use of Climate-Related Words – Mother Jones

"Banning the use of these words would silence key elements of DOE's mission," another anonymous current agency staffer told the Guardian. "But what is even more worrying is that Secretary Wright is also illegally freezing and cancelling programs that fund advanced research into solar, wind, and other clean energy technologies. DOE leadership can choose to stick their heads in the sand, but that won't make the climate crisis go away or stop super storms and wildfires from destroying more homes."…

Weekly Roundup: State Media, Jimmy Kimmel, and How Free Speech Dies (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)

Brad and Dan tackle the controversy surrounding Jimmy Kimmel, the FCC, and free speech in the United States, while examining political and media reactions to Charlie Kirk’s death and the responses from Trump allies JD Vance and Steven Miller.

They discuss the broader implications for media censorship, the growing power of state-aligned outlets, and how high-profile events are used to justify targeting dissent, particularly against left-wing groups, trans people, and critics of the Trump administration.

The episode highlights the Heritage Foundation’s push to label trans people and allies as domestic terrorists, the chilling effect of government threats on universities and businesses, and the ripple effects leading to preemptive firings and resignations. Despite these alarming developments, Brad and Dan underscore the importance of resistance, hope, and refusing to give in to authoritarian trends.

‘State-driven censorship’: new wave of book bans hits Florida school districts | US book bans | The Guardian

The board issued a harsh warning to the Hillsborough county school district in May, saying that if they didn't remove "pornographic" titles from their library, formal legal action could ensue. More than 600 books were pulled as a result, and the process was expected to cost the district $350,000. 

The books taken off the school shelves included The Diary of Anne Frank and What Girls Are Made of by Elana K Arnold. None of them were under formal review by the district, and they hadn't been flagged by local parents as potentially inappropriate. Parents with children in the school system even had the opportunity to opt their children out of a particular reading, without removing them from the class for everyone… 

These bans often target authors of color, female writers and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Books that educate about any of these experiences, or that document historical periods, are the recipients of frequent censorship attacks…

Trump administration shutters US office countering foreign disinformation

Known as the Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (R/Fimi) hub, the closure represents a huge victory for rightwing critics who had alleged that the office, despite only looking at foreign state-level disinformation attacks on other countries, was involved in censoring American conservative speech. It comes as part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to dismantle what it describes as government overreach in monitoring speech...
