Brandon School Board trustees voted to reject a proposal to form a committee to review and potentially ban books on gender identity and sexual health from school libraries.
The proposal was put forward by a former school trustee who said the books are harmful to children.
Hundreds attended last night’s meeting (May 23), and a majority of those who spoke said the idea was an attack against Westman’s LGBTQ-plus community.
