She Thought ‘It’s Not in OUR Schools’…Then She Looked

In this episode of Calibrate Conversations, Brady Cone sits down with Shannon Ayres, Texas Education Director for Citizens Defending Freedom, to expose what’s really happening inside school and public libraries.Shannon shares her firsthand story of assuming her district was safe—“That’s not happening in Frisco, Texas”—until she started checking the titles in her kids’ school library. What she found shocked her… and launched her into a statewide effort to protect children from graphic, agenda-driven content.We walk through:* How explicit books are ending up in school libraries* Why even small rural towns aren’t immune* How top-down ideology is shaping library culture* Why opt-out policies don’t actually protect kids* The legal fight in Texas—and the strategy other states can use* What every parent MUST do to safeguard their children (even if homeschooling isn’t an option)If you’re a parent, educator, pastor, or Christian concerned about the ideological capture happening in schools, this conversation is essential.👉 Get resources & learn how to get involved:https://citizensdefendingfreedom.com👉 More biblical resources for sexuality & discipleship:https://calibrateministries.comTimestamps: 00:00 – Introduction & Why Libraries Matter01:32 – “That’s Not Happening in My Town…”03:30 – COVID, Losing Her Business & Becoming Activated07:35 – Parents vs. Massive School Legal Departments08:36 – The ALA’s Ideological Capture of Libraries12:21 – Why Opt-Out Policies Don’t Protect Kids19:03 – School Board Meetings: The Most Empty Important Room24:55 – Secret Gender Transitions Hidden from Parents33:08 – Why “Obscene” Isn’t the Right Legal Term38:54 – How to Audit Your School Library Step-by-StepJoin us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! Other ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#Scandal #Libraries #ProtectingKids #Sexuality
