Librarian Reveals Why Progressivism Drove Her to Quit

Dom welcomes UnHerd columnist Nina Welsch onto the Dom Giordano Program after she penned an article explaining why a push for progressivism has caused her to quit as a school librarian. First, Giordano asks Welsch for what was the final straw that pushed her over the edge, with Welsch referring to a specific book, Grandad’s Pride, which featured illustrations that she found utterly unacceptable.  Then, Welsch continues, explaining what’s unfolded in Scotland and the United Kingdom, which largely reflects what we’ve seen with woke educators here in the United States. Welsch explains why she’s against these certain depictions, stressing the importance of protecting children. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
