Keenan Crow, Director of Policy and Advocacy of One Iowa, will present an explanation of IA SF496, Iowa's new anti-LGBTQ+ education law. Among other things, this law includes a "don't say gay" provision for grades K-6 (although some districts intend to expand that to all schools), forces outing of LGBTQ+ students, and bans any book with any description of "a sex act" in any grade. Find out what the law says and how parents, students, and school staff can respond.

This event is part of the Iowa City Public Library Intellectual Freedom Festival, and is sponsored by ICPL and the City of Iowa City Office of Equity & Human Rights.
