This sickens me. I feel very fortunate that I had a mother who was a professor and encouraged reading to the point where we had a lot of books in the house and if we could reach the book on the shelf and do it without bothering her, we kids could read any book we wanted.

The sad thing is when interviewed some of the people who want these books banned, admit they have not read them.

It's sad but it's also par for course ignorance breeds ignorance. Banning books is perhaps the most ignorant thing a person can do. They haven't read history or they can't read or they don't care. Banning books correlates many times throughout history with mass casualty events.

Good. That happened with Maus. Sales shot through the roof. Now we see everything is about gender identity that's being banned. Arizona is committing awful by placing restrictions on trans rights and abortion. What are we trying to do unravel whatever progress we may have made?
