<title>Occupy Wall Street Library Sending Books to Tucson</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-46233" title="211123_205203589501640_6445423_n" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/files/2012/01/211123_205203589501640_6445423_n.jpg" alt="" width="180" height="288" />The Occupy Wall Street Library and Occupy Tuscon are raising funds to <a href="http://peopleslibrary.wordpress.com/2012/01/26/join-us-in-supporting-the-students-and-teachers-of-tucson-unified-school-district/" target="_blank">redistribute books that have been removed</a> from Tucson Unified School  District.</p>
<p>Last year, Arizona passed the controversial H.B. 2281, a bill banning school curriculum &#8220;designed primarily for pupils of a particular ethnic  group.&#8221; Along with the bill, a number of ethnic studies books have been removed from school district shelves (list follows below).</p>
<p><a href="http://peopleslibrary.wordpress.com/2012/01/26/join-us-in-supporting-the-students-and-teachers-of-tucson-unified-school-district/" target="_blank">Check it out</a>: &#8220;Acting in solidarity with <a href="http://occupytucson.org/">OccupyTucson</a> and the students, parents, and teachers of the Tucson Unified School  District we are going send copies of the banned texts to Tucson for  distribution.  Lots of copies.  As many copies as we can find and buy.   We respect the rights of authors and publishers, so all copies will be  completely legally purchased though an independent bookseller or  directly from the publisher.  Donations of the these texts are, of  course, welcomed. We’ll be collecting funds via the <a href="https://www.wepay.com/donate/153169?ref=widget&amp;utm_medium=widget&amp;utm_campaign=donation">WePay</a> link on this page.  Any amount will be gladly welcomed and all  donations will go toward the purchase of books or shipping books.&#8221;</p>
