Excerpt from a passage. "One of the most common forms of censorship in schools is banned books. Books have been challenged and then banned from schools and libraries for many
reasons: profane language, sexual or violent content, and religious or political views. Since 1982, various groups have sought to remove or restrict access to 11,300
books in our nation's schools and libraries (Crum, 2013). Some of these titles are works of noted literary merit, such as The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by
Mark Twain, Beloved by Toni Morrison, and The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger. Even the children's picture book Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice
Sendak was challenged for being dark and disturbing (American Library Association, 2014). Organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
have fought banning books for a long time and have helped keep books like those mentioned above in our classrooms. Even so, both new and old books are
challenged and banned every year. Unfortunately, when books are not allowed in schools and libraries, students are denied the opportunity to learn from them."

political views."
