  Case: How to manage with the new ban on books.
I find it extremely alarming that so many books are being banned in Florida. Where I live and hope to teach. It is a scary taught that I am going into this profession and was so excited to help my students become well rounded people and now there is so many topics that are off limits. I just worry that students because they are brilliant will have questions about history and I will not feel comfortable talking to them about it because of these new bans. How are teachers adjusting and what can I do to prepare?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I'm an incoming teacher in Florida and it's honestly terrifying and disheartening to see all the book bans. I try to limit my consumption of the news talking about everything terrible going on in the profession because I try to remind myself nothing is forever and me knowing more about all of this right now will not help me. Some of the more extreme government leaders will not be in office much longer, so feel some peace there. When you do get a school, make sure to ask around and see how other veteran teachers are dealing with it. I would also take the time to ask administration if they have specific policies laid out and if they could give you a "do not mention" list for the time being. Every school and every district will be different, so asking questions is your best bet.
