We decided to launch it on multiple platforms because we expected it to be canceled. And so that\u2019s why we also put it on Smashwords as well as Lulu, a print platform.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As The Christian Post further reported:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"23.521594684385\">\n<p><em>Shortly after CP\u2019s interview with Keffler Wednesday, the author said that the online retailer sent her an email, which she shared with CP, explaining that the scrubbing of the book was an \u201cerror.\u201d The Kindle version went live and the paperback version should be reactivated soon. Amazon had previously told her that the book had violated their terms of service, which she challenged.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In a subsequent email to CP, Keffler said it was possible that \u201ca calling and emailing onslaught may have affected the outcome\u201d as \u201clots and lots of people were contacting Amazon to complain.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Keffler believes that Big Tech and large corporations are intent on silencing critical voices of transgender ideology because there is big money in the \u201cgender industry,\u201d referencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the11thhourblog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The 11th Hour Blog<\/a>, a website where the revenue streams fueling transgender ideology worldwide have been traced and documented.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Keffler hopes her book can help parents of children struggling with gender identity, but is sad that anyone would feel the need to buy a copy. \u201cWe talk to new parents all the time and several support groups for parents on social media, and there\u2019s just more and more of an influx of them coming in. It\u2019s heartbreaking. Honestly, I\u2019ve felt this way about the book for almost a week now, and every time someone buys it my heart hurts a little bit because I know that this is another family that\u2019s been impacted by this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amazon has a history of banning books that present transgender behavior as symptomatic of mental illness, which has drawn the attention of some GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a bookseller, we provide our customers with access to a variety of viewpoints, including books that some customers may find objectionable,\u201d&nbsp;Brian Huseman, Amazon vice president of public policy,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/amazon-bans-books-framing-transgenderism-as-mental-illness\">told<\/a>&nbsp;Republican Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida, Mike Lee of Utah, Mike Braun of Indiana, and Josh Hawley of Missouri in a March letter. The group of senators received the letter in response to questions over the retailer\u2019s decision to pull Ryan T.

All retailers make decisions about what selection they choose to offer, as do we.
