The UofR People’s Court ,[object Object],CASE 4: A large urban public school board passed a resolution which effectively banned the use of three books as learning resources for kindergarten and grade one students. The three books, Asha’s Mums , Belinda’s Bouquet and One Dad, Two Dads, Brown Dad, Blue Dads , depicted children with same-sex parents. The subject matter of the books was deemed to be “sensitive” and likely to cause parental concern.
