S51E9 Censorship and "Cancelling"

from Writing Roots · host Writing Roots

This whole month has been about helping you understand that when you become an author, you become a public figure of sorts. That means "being cancelled" is a real possibility if you make the wrong move or say the wrong thing. Aside from that, there is also a long-standing debate in the book world about censorship - particularly book banning. In many ways, these are two sides to the same coin. But what does it mean for you? Leigh and Ley discuss it in this episode. First aired February 29, 2024.

Let children read what they want and then talk about it with them. If parents and kids can talk together, we won’t have as much censorship because we won’t have as much fear. - Judy Blume
