Twitter: Banned Books' New Best Friend from NYT > Books by By LELA MOORE


It's Banned Books Week, and for an event like this, it never hurts to have a cause celebre. This year, organizers had only to turn to Twitter, where people have been rallying behind the young-adult author Laurie Halse Anderson, whose novel "Speak" has found itself at the center of a heated censorship debate. - read the NYT article here.

You all must have heard by now; it's all about #speakloudly on Twitter, and the crusade against the censorship of the mentioned book.

  1. An interesting discussion is worth comment.
    There's no doubt that that you ought to publish more on this subject, it may not be a taboo matter but typically people do not discuss such topics. To the next! Many thanks!!
