"It’s part of a larger strategy to go after libraries, which is really going after books, which is really going after certain people."

- Andre Wade, State Director, Silver State Equality, says book bans are part of a larger strategy that’s unrelated to the books themselves, but instead is an attack on people including the broader LGBTQ+ community and specifically to transgender people.
