Book Burning Bonanza
Episode 10
Monday, 13 December, 2021
Earlier this week, someone asked me if I would help get the word out about a book they thought should be banned from our public school libraries. “Pornographic,” I believe was the accusation. I didn’t endorse the message, but it did leave me wondering: what makes a book bannable? And what impact do all of these cries for censoring books actually have?Links to resources:American Library Association (ALA)ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF)Banned Books Lists, 2001-2020Support the show Hosted on Acast.
