Matt Hollingsworth, WATE; Alex Haley’s “Roots” to be removed from Knox County Schools libraries
"Alex Haley’s book “Roots” is included in an updated list of book titles to be removed from Knox County Schools libraries.
The schools previously removed other books from shelves due to the Age-Appropriate Materials Act including “Water for Elephants,” “A Court of Thorns and Roses” and “A Clockwork Orange.”
The state passed the Age Appropriate Materials Act in 2022 requiring schools to have a list of materials in their libraries and to have a policy for reviewing them for age appropriateness...
Haley grew up in Henning, Tennessee."
