Re: A thread about political correctness and publishing . .
I just did a quick google on WA State and found that around 2003, Huck Finn was banned from three schools. I guess more would have banned it by now? At that time, one school banned Harry Potter. I do know that my kids' school still has NUMEROUS copies of HP.
I love that the "Anarchist Cookbook" has been banned. lol! Luckily we already have that in our collection (no joke!) hahaha No, my kids have NOT looked at it!
