APPLYING THIS IN THE CLASSROOM
To educate our youth on censorship and freedom of speech, I ask them to journal their thoughts on censorship. I show them the lists of censored/challenged books (and another visual aide, found here, which shows some surprising banned books). Then I start asking them some specific questions, such as:
1. Do you believe in freedom of speech? Explain.
2. Do you believe in censorship, or removing materials from the library or classroom if someone opposes them? Why/why not?
3. Are there any books that should not be allowed in schools? Explain.
4. Are there any books that should not be allowed in libraries? Explain.
5. Are there any books that should never be printed? Explain.
After they write, I ask them some discussion questions to reflect on their answers, such as:
-If you answered "no" to number 1, but "yes" to numbers 4 or 5, then you need to change your answer to number 1 to "yes."
I bring up one of my favorite quotes by Noam Chomsky:
"If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."
This always makes them stop and think. If they wish to have freedom of speech for themselves and their beliefs, it is only fair to allow it for all. It ceases to be freedom of speech when we limit others' rights.
Do you have a discussion with your students about censorship and/or banned books?
