This is part of a flyer advertising a "banned books" reading tomorrow. I confess that this doesn't mean that much to me even though I am a First Amendment zealot. Mainly, it's because there's such a broad definition of "banned." Certainly, it's silly when any community or school tries to proscribe any written works. Not to mention counterproductive. But when even books like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone count as "banned," well.
But at least it gives participants ( in the reading, that is) the thrill of Standing Up for Our Rights. I wonder if they would do the same for the dude who made that YouTube video of recent fame.
