The Florida parent behind the ban of Amanda Gorman’s poetry book ban has ties to the Proud Boys and the ultraconservative Moms For Liberty, The Daily Beast reports.

The Bob Graham Education Center restricted access to “The Hill We Climb,” a book adaptation of the poem Gorman recited at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, after Daily Salinas complained that it was inappropriate for children. Salinas inaccurately stated the author was Oprah Winfrey (the book includes a forword by Winfrey).

The Miami Lakes (Miami-Dade County) school also pulled two other books (“The ABCs of Black History” and “Love to Langston”) from its elementary school shelves after Salinas complained about them, as well.

Salinas, who has two children at the school, is the only parent who complained about the books, according to the report. Salinas cited critical race theory, gender ideology, and indoctrination as the reasons she believed the books to be inappropriate.
