Can’t help you there, but you can do something in solidarity with Jewish people.

You can also send a message to anyone on the school board with this link and tell them exactly how you feel 😇
While this is a good idea, please remember to refrain from:
—threats
—swearing
—excessive use of allcaps (use italics for emphasis)
As much as I’d like to write and say “you’re a bunch of Nazi-enabling shitstains, you MOTHERFUCKERS,” this would be counterproductive. Go ahead and write what you really want to say in an offline document and then put the nice version in an email. Make sure you mention the Pulitzer and that it is a Holocaust memoir.
And if you want a really nice kill punch, given that this is Tennessee: “while I understand the urge to elevate the language used in school libraries and remove expletives such as ‘damn,’ doing this to the entire breadth of English literature would ban many important books, including the Bible.”
(Yes, “damn” is in the Bible, in many translations.)
(No, you don’t have to be religious to use that argument. The school board probably fancies themselves Christians, and that’s the important part.)
If you’re not in the US, and don’t want to endanger the petition by using a fake address (please don’t), this is 100% something you can do. Hell, if you’re from a country that was involved in the Holocaust, you can literally talk a little about how your country has responded to the aftermath and to Never Again education. That is a valid and valuable perspective. There’s nothing quite like “even other countries are pissed” to add perspective.

So Billie Eilish, a recording artist who makes millions with her creative work, has teamed up with Adobe, a multi-billion company, to bring us a contest where artists make merch designs for her for free, and only the winner gets paid. Sorry, a “prize”. And part of the “prize” is exposure.
Oh, and if you submit an entry, whether you win or not, you give them the right to use your work.
Contests like this are a scam. They’re exploitative. Always. They’re a way to get people to do work for free, and only pay the "winner”.
Billie Eilish makes music. She is a creative professional herself who makes money, a lot of money, with her art. She can afford to pay an artist to design her tour shirt. Adobe can afford to pay artists to do design work.
If she wants to give fans the opportunity to work for her - just invite portfolio submissions. Let artists send you work they’ve already done, pick one whose style you like, and hire them to make a design for you. Easy.
This, though? This is trying to use her fame to get people to work for her for free. This is trying to exploit her fans. Note how the key selling point they picked for the tweet isn’t the cash prize, it’s the exposure. This entire thing is based on the hope that people will be so excited to have their work officially featured by Billie Eilish that they’ll work for free just for the chance.
Don’t enter “art contests” like this. It’s not a contest, it’s a scam.
Are you in a relationship or just having fun right now?
