The Shah & a Book Banning

During this unit, diversity, we were able to choose a book that had been banned, and figure out why it may have been banned. While we read, we thought about different themes that may have been mentioned such as politics, diversity, and religion. I read the book Persepolis written and illustrated by Marjane Satrapi. In terms of FE's, we went to the Women & Children First bookstore located in Andersonville. This was an interesting experience because we were able to see the diversity in book that they had, and books that I had never seen in ordinary book stores. Banning books is caused by a group, government, or anything higher than the proletariats, censors or blocks a book from being read in the public. Read my research paper to see why Persepolis was banned from Chicago Public Schools and libraries, and my stance on the issue.
