If you look at the conversations posted you will find Deborah Caldwell-Stone's post before mine. I cannot answer to hers because "I am not a subscribed member" but to your post and my own, I can answer. What this means is that IFRT and by extension the ALA Connect system is one that is selectively censorious. This is contrary to Intellectual Freedom.

Subject: Keynote Speeches on Confronting Disinformation & Book Bans
Dear Colleagues:
Last month, Wonda Powell and I had the honor of giving keynote speeches to a conference on the future of libraries. The conference was organized by the Pacific Library Partnership and held at the San Francisco Public Library. I spoke about "Confronting Disinformation and Book Bans by Cultivating Critical Thinking and Empathy." Wonda Powell's speech was entitled, "From Critical Thinking to Critical Race Theory: Unearthing History." The speeches and other conference panels can be viewed by clicking on the link below.
Looking forward to your comments and questions.
Best,
Frieda Afary
