Quote from American Library Association,


"The freedom to read is essential to our democracy.
It is continuously under attack...
These actions apparently arise from a view that
our national tradition of free expression is no longer valid;
that censorship and suppression are needed to avoid
the subversion of politics and the corruption of morals."
