California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is getting slammed on social media when he tried to shame other states for banning books — and had one banned in his own state.

“Reading some banned books to figure out what these states are so afraid of,” the Democrat governor tweeted with an image of him reading with a stack of books.
Included were George Owell’s “1984” and Harper Lee’s “To Kill A Mockingbird.”

“I see you still haven’t read 1984…that explains a lot,” “Let Us Worship” founder Sean Feucht tweeted.
Many online were quick to point out that a Southern California school district banned “To Kill A Mockingbird” for having the “N” word in it.
The Burbank Unified School District said the book was removed after a complaint from a member of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee.
