KYTV reports that Monett superintendent Mark Drake says the book, “Dear Martin,” wasn’t pulled from the curriculum because of the topic but because teachers didn’t go through the proper protocol to get it approved.

I have yet to see a complaint of 'procedure' that was not some thinly veiled attempt to silence something the status quo did not like. In many cases, it is not even thinly veiled.
