Hey everybody, this is Heidi St. John.

Welcome to episode number 628 of the Heidi St. John podcast.

Today I normally have a friend on the podcast,

but she got sick and couldn't make it.

So I'm going to go ahead and address a couple more of your questions

that we normally do on mailbox Monday,

particularly where the American Library Association is concerned.

So stick around.

I think you're going to be encouraged.

All right, so I am obviously my voice isn't a whole lot better,

and I appreciate you guys bearing with me on this.

We are continuing to get feedback from a video that I did over at the busy mom,

a couple of weeks ago.

That video has now been seen.

I want to say somewhere in the neighborhood of 45,000 times.

And it's garnered a whole lot of comments.

And so I thought I would read some of those comments to you,

while I'm actually not going to read all of them to you,

because a lot of emerges hateful and mean and awful.

But I want to read to you some of what the feedback that's coming in

so that you can kind of see for yourself sort of what you can expect

when you stand up to this kind of indoctrination in a publicly funded library.
