Classrooms--where students, their families, and curricular expectations intersect with legislation, education policies, and community norms--have become the sites of censorship and attacks on students' right to read. Teachers are the professionals charged with weaving these competing forces into a coherent curriculum and supportive school experience.


The Impacts of Censorship, Volume 2 offers research that centers teachers working in a climate of book challenges and bans, censorship, restrictive legislation, angry parents, and ideologues. With essays that incorporate research from Idaho, Iowa, New York, Massachusetts, and Texas, this volume presents a wide range of educational contexts for the study of censorship. It also features interviews with nine National Council of Teachers of English Intellectual Freedom Award winners, including authors Laurie Halse Anderson and Nic Stone.


Readers of this volume will gain a deeper understanding of teachers' perspectives and will learn strategies for teaching diverse texts in the current climate and for advocating to keep diverse books in students' hands.
