One of the most important and influential topics I hold near my heart, the right to exercise and read all literature freely. I find this to be one of the most valuable and crucial concerns effecting our society and most importantly the youth who are limited to these options. Books hold a special kind of power, and each person who reads that book takes something different from it. Books are not created to ‘harm’ you, but to teach, grow, cultivate, and empower you. The harmful trait is those who restrict the circulation of those books. I am so proud to say I have read some books that have been once deemed/or still may be seen as offensive. Knowledge and reading is one of the most powerful and rewarding experiences an individual can have. Read freely and expose yourself to the vast world of literature!
September 21 to September 27 is Banned Books Week. To celebrate, we found a bunch of books THE MAN doesn’t want you to read. Fight the power! Read the books!
Jigenji Temple by Morgan Boyco Shidarezakura (weeping cherry blossoms)
“He saw, in the wreaths she would playfully snatch From the hedges, a glory his crown could not match, And preferr’d in his heart the least ringlet that curl’d Down her exquisite neck to the throne of the world.”
