For decades society has been a victim of censorship, whitewashing, and banning. Either history is told a different way, or it is retold in hushed tones. As if shouting, it would erupt mass chaos and destruction. Book banning can be seen in two ways: either an attempt at shielding younger generations away from accurate aspects of life that they will, regardless, find out about in the future; or an attempt at hiding history and developing in students a narrow worldview. It means a denial of First Amendment rights and proven psychological deficits.
