Should books be censored? By Clara Johnson
What better to talk about other than one of the most dogmatic, ambivalent inscrutable topics of the Century? Starting off with the big scary word at the top of the page: censorship. To censor something is 'The suppression or prohibition of any parts of books, films, news, etc. that are considered obscene, politically unacceptable, or a threat to security.' according to the Oxford Dictionary. To think that censorship has been around since 213 BCE, when the Chinese Emperor Qin Shi Huang buried 460 scholars for the power of his kingdom alive IS kind of scary.
