Lorena Benson, 15, a sophomore at Athens Drive High School in Raleigh, delivered a speech to the Wake County school board this week that quickly went viral.
The teenager's speech was posted on X and garnering more than 250,000 views.
The teen claimed her Honors English class recently read a story detailing sexual encounters between two cousins that made her extremely 'uncomfortable.'
While Benson didn't name the specific book, the disturbing content she described appears to match the short story 'Tomorrow Is Too Far' by acclaimed Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
