Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss the South Texas Mission school district’s response to a request from local pastors to remove 676 books from school libraries, including a graphic novel adaptation of Anne Frank’s Diary. While some argue the books are inappropriate, others see this as censorship. Is this a case of protecting children or restricting access to important literature?
In the second segment of the show, we examine the legal battle New York v. HHS, where religious healthcare professionals are fighting for their right to refuse procedures that violate their beliefs. Should medical professionals have the right to deny care based on conscience, or does this create dangerous barriers to treatment?
