Overview

• Superintendent Carol Perez agreed to the removal within minutes of receiving the demand.
• Books removed include 'Anne Frank's Diary,' 'Maus,' 'The Fixer,' and 'Kasher in the Rye.'
• The decision was influenced by local conservative activists and endorsed by Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
• Perez was later placed on administrative leave and separated from the district.
• The book removal reflects a broader national trend of culture war-fueled censorship in schools.
