WATCH: Mom banned from Kirkwood school board meetings after taking issue with pornographic books

Jessica Crandell: 'I left the podium just to show board members the filth' on my phone

Jessica Crandell, a Kirkwood School District parent joined the Marc Cox Morning Show to explain her side of the story, following the school board's decision to ban her from meetings for a year.

Crandell says she attended the Kirkwood meeting after she says she, "learned from a Rockwood School District meeting that they were aware of several pornographic books and literature in all public schools."

"So I attended the next [Kirkwood] board meeting and I had a picture of one of the illustrations that's in a book called Gender Queer, and I left the podium just to show the board members the filth," Crandell told Cox. "They told me that I needed to get behind the podium, I could email them, I could call them, in which I said, 'I have emailed, I have called, they don't listen to what we have to say.'"

"On my way out, I was showing them the pictures, and they told me that I needed to be removed," said Crandell.
