Outraged Florida mom flags explicit book featuring nudity and sex acts at school board meeting

A Florida Police Officer Stopped a shaken mother from presenting an explicit image she found in a School library Book during a board meeting.

Julie Gebhards of Tampa said she was stunned that a school review panel approved the graphic novel “Blankets” after a parental complaint — despite it being packed with nudity and detailed descriptions of sex acts.

After Gebhard advised audience members to leave the room if accompanied by children, she described the book’s content in detail.

“The book also contains crass talk like this: ‘Church camp is the best place to score pussy,’” she said. “Also: ‘Did you feel up her t—ies?’ It has images of masturbation, naked boys peeing on each other and sexual assault of a child. … I imagine we’re all uncomfortable now.”

At one point, Gebhard held up an oversized image from the book depicting two young people in bed with a female’s breasts exposed.

Video of the meeting shows a police officer stationed nearby approaching Gebhard and taking the display out of her hand and putting it on the floor.

Appearing startled by the intrusion, Gebhards stressed that the book had been challenged by Hillsborough County parents but was then unanimously approved by seven-person panel at Plant City High School.

“This is in children’s libraries here in Hillsborough County,” she said. “Approved by that committee unanimously.”

The mom said the volume was plainly inappropriate for school aged kids — and included referenced to “erections, breast fondling, biting, tasting, oral copulation, stripping off clothes in heated passion, 22 images of the aroused couple, 10 images of her naked breasts.”

“This is shameful, base and degrading,” she told the panel.

Board Chair Nadia Combs quickly moved on to the next public speaker at the end of Gebhards’ allotted two minutes.

“Thank you,’ she said. “Next speaker. No one is allowed to bring displays.”

Gebhards continued her address despite being asked to give up the microphone.

“This is in a library book in your classrooms,” she said before leaving the podium.

She posted video of her comments to the board on Instagram, drawing a flurry of appalled comments.

“The fact that this is going on all over the US, and right under the noses of mothers everywhere is an atrocity,” one respondent stated.

Florida law allows parents to formally challenge books that are made available to students, but those objections are then accepted or rejected by school administrators.

Roughly 2,300 students attent Plant City High School — which counts current Florida Attorney General and close Ron DeSantis ally Ashley Moody as a graduate.
