These four books are being targeted by book banners in Alberta, Canada

Minister of Education and Childcare Demetrios Nicolaides from Alberta, Canada, announced a public feedback process around what he called “extremely graphic and age-inappropriate content” in K-12 school library books. The four books singled out by the government as containing examples of such content are Blankets by Craig Thompson, Flamer by Mike Curato, Fun Home by Alison Bechdel, and Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe, all of which are comics, three of which are queer stories.

During a press conference Monday, Nicolaides denied that the government’s initiative is about creating a book ban, though he told reporters that “our intent is that extreme offenders—like the ones we’ve identified—do not make their way into school libraries.” (source)

Folks in Alberta, Canada can share their opinion on book banning in this (very biased) government survey before June 6.

Canadians, please share this! You have to speak out against book bans NOW or you will end up having to fight all the same fights we are seeing in the US around erasing queer stories, defunding libraries, and silencing queer authors. Please boost!

AN EXCEPTIONALLY VIBRANT IRIDESCENT AMMONITE

From the Upper Cretaceous, Bearpaw formation (75-72 million years ago), the exceptional 18 3⁄4-inch specimen of a single Placenticeras intercalare displaying a dazzling iridescence of reds and oranges, greens and rich blues.

A magnificent example of one of the most spectacular fossils. The unique opal-like iridescence found only on ammonites from Alberta, Canada has been termed 'ammolite', and since 1981 has had the status of a gemstone. The shimmering, metallic colours were caused by the combination of millions of years of compression and the mineralization of iron, copper and silica which precipitated from volcanic ash. The opalescent layers of colour are particularly prized, and are rarely seen as vibrantly as on the current example, which unlike many specimens of its size is not composite but is a single shell wonderfully preserved.
