Tonight I gave Art Spiegelman the National Book Awards Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. And we’re both being banned. Some of you may think this is a good thing because you don’t like my books or you don’t care for Maus. But I guarantee that there are books you love on the banned lists too. That’s why libraries and librarians fight for their rights to have all the books on the shelves and for your rights to read them. And it’s why I support them.

Here’s a link to an article about the current bannings in Texas. You may want to read it. And then think about getting onto your local school board, wherever you are, to prevent this from happening in your part of the world.

More North Texas schools ban books
Keller ISD and Frisco ISD join other school districts that are banning certain books from their libraries and classrooms.
