Censorship history
In 2025, "Choque de Reyes" was banned in several school districts across the United States due to concerns over its violent content and offensive language. Notably, the ban was upheld following a heated school board vote in a district in Texas, where parents and community members voiced strong objections during a PTA meeting. The decision sparked formal complaints from advocates for free speech, leading to ongoing debates about the appropriateness of the book in educational settings. As of late 2025, the ban remains contested in various districts, with some parents and educators pushing for its reinstatement in school curricula.
