Times Magazine's book editor Sarah Begley, who has a degree in writing and editing, discusses how the society as a whole will affect the perspective on banned books. She goes into detail by providing two lists of the top 10 banned books from 2001 in comparison to 2015. The book all had similar reasoning as to why it was banned depending on the year. I appreciated that she explained how detrimental banned books are. Currently, we are losing jobs for librarians and the bans are going unnoticed because of it. By the lack of acknowledgment and outrage, there are books that are needed to be read that aren't given the opportunity to. Books being banned are not a bad thing. Begley explains how books become more intriguing if there is a ban. People want to know what would cause the book to be banned. Although, if no one is around to bring the attention to the ban, the knowledge is able to be passed by without anyone knowing.

This article, written by Jennifer Rossuk, talks about her class about book censorship. She provides her students with four units of work and a book/art for each unit: Fahrenheit 451, The Catcher in the Rye, Inherit the Wind, and My Name is Asher Lev (artwork). She has her students create questions while reading the book and have open discussions. They also answer questions from the AP English exam. Her students have mock school board meeting/debates to explain why the book should or should not be banned.

The point is to get students to understand how specific lines could result in censorship. Students also search for answers as to who has the power to ban and censor these books and who they believe she have the power to choose. Finally, the students review artwork to get an understanding of the role paintings and other art pieces poses. At the end of the course, students are to evaluate how the books in their lives have affected them as readers, writers, speakers, and thinkers.
