When a school board, a library or a state bans books, it’s not a show of strength. It’s a sign they’re ruled by fear. Fear of knowledge. Fear of opposing views. Fear of democracy.
@StevenBeschloss It’s funny, a lot of my favorite books are on the ban list and I own a copy of them. Good luck trying to prevent my kids from reading these if they have interest.
@StevenBeschloss It’s sad because the children are suffering by being turned away from classic literature. Education is taking a major hit over this matter. Don’t force them to read the material but don’t block them from it either. If one doesn’t like it, don’t read it. Don’t ruin it for everyone.
