Censorship history
In 2024, "Dreaming in Cuban" by Cristina García faced bans in several school districts across the United States, primarily due to its political content and themes related to race and colonialism. Notably, the book was challenged during a school board meeting in a district in Florida, where parents expressed concerns over its portrayal of the Cuban revolution and its implications for students. The ban was upheld after a contentious vote, reflecting ongoing debates about educational materials that address complex political histories.
