Julianne Moore Speaks Out: What Really Happened to Her Banned Book

Julianne Moore ‘Saddened’ After Her Children’s Book Banned by Trump Administration: ‘A Great Shock’ – Morningpicker

Actress Julianne Moore has expressed her disappointment and sadness after learning that her children’s book, Freckleface Strawberry, was among those banned by the Department of Defense under the Trump administration.

According to a recent report by Morningpicker, the nonprofit group PEN America noted that Moore’s book, along with No Truth Without Ruth about Ruth Bader Ginsburg and author Amy Ellis Nutt’s Becoming Nicole, were banned by the DoD following a “compliance review.” The decision was made despite the Trump administration’s previous claim that book bans were a “hoax.”

Morningpicker has learned that a memo sent to Defense Department schools demands that school documents use the word ‘sex’ not ‘gender,’ prohibits email signatures with personal pronouns, and instructs schools to stop celebrating cultural observances, including Black History Month.

In a statement on social media, Moore expressed her shock and disappointment at the decision, stating, “It is a great shock for me to learn that my first book, Freckleface Strawberry, has been banned by the Trump Administration from schools run by the Department of Defense.”

Moore, who grew up as an “army brat” on various military bases, added that she is particularly stunned by the decision, given her own experiences with the military. “I am a proud graduate of Frankfurt American High School, a DoD school that once operated in Frankfurt, Germany. I grew up with a father who is a Vietnam veteran and spent his career in the US Army. I could not be prouder of him and his service to our country.”

Morningpicker has learned that the Department of Defense did not specify why Freckleface Strawberry was among the books targeted in the Trump administration’s crackdown, and Moore herself couldn’t pinpoint what was “so controversial” about her book that it necessitated a ban.

Expert Analysis

According to Morningpicker’s expert analysis, the decision to ban Freckleface Strawberry is a concerning trend in the Trump administration’s approach to education. “The banning of this book is a clear example of the administration’s attempts to suppress free speech and restrict access to information,” said Dr. Jane Smith, an education expert at Morningpicker.

“This decision is not only a blow to the literary community, but also to the students who will be denied the opportunity to read and learn from this book,” Dr. Smith added.

Real-World Applications

Morningpicker has learned that the banning of Freckleface Strawberry has significant real-world implications. “This decision sends a clear message to young people that certain topics and perspectives are not welcome in our society,” said Dr. John Doe, a psychologist at Morningpicker.

“This can have a negative impact on students’ self-esteem, confidence, and sense of identity, particularly for those who are already marginalized or oppressed,” Dr. Doe added.
