Gigi Hadid: Court orders Texas library must reinstate books with ‘Butts and Farts’

“I Need a New Butt!” by Dawn McMillan. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals sided with a lower court to reinstate 17 books deemed too offensive by parents. McMillan’s work has previously been targeted by book bans in Texas.

Texas library must reinstate books with ‘butts and farts,’ court says

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in Texas ruled Friday that public schools and libraries can’t just ban books they disagree with. The decision could stop some Houston-area schools in their tracks.

As more and more Texas school boards seek to censor books deemed too controversial or sexual in content, a conservative court in Texas ruled Friday that government entities, including public libraries, cannot just ban or censor books they disagree with.

Books with butts allowed back in Katy ISD after 14 titles removed

The ruling has far-reaching implications for the broader movement in Texas to restrict books from public school shelves. In recent years, school boards in Cy-Fair, Katy, and beyond have moved to ban books deemed too controversial, including young-adult and children’s books that show “butts,” cause sexual arousal or depict LGBTQ+ relationships. In 2022, Texas attempted to ban more books than any other state, according to the American Library Association.

The case itself originated from parent complaints that books in the Llano County public library system showed “butts and farts,” prompting local officials to instruct the library director to take the books off shelves. Officials then requested the director to cull books said to contain “pornographic filth.” The list of offending titles included a book about a farting leprechaun, a book about a transgender teen, two books about the history of racism in the United States and a book about puberty.

Seven library patrons sued to reinstate the books, claiming the censorship violated the First Amendment. After a district court sided with the patrons and Llano residents appealed, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an injunction to reinstate the offending titles, ordering the books should return to shelves within 24 hours.

“Librarians may consider books’ contents in making curation decisions,” judges ruled. “Their discretion, however, must be balanced against patrons’ First Amendment rights… a book may not be removed for the sole—or a substantial— reason that the decisionmaker does not wish patrons to be able to access the book’s viewpoint or message.”

Although the case focuses on public libraries, the ruling could have implications for future lawsuits against censorship in public school libraries. In the past year alone, school boards in Katy, Fort Bend, and Cy-Fair have moved to censor titles based on subjective beliefs. After some back-and-forth, the Katy Independent School District eventually backed down last year from a decision to remove titles including No, David! and Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret on grounds that they contained nudity and/or sexual themes.
