Finn! Part Two.

A good blogger knows to rely on her fellows when it comes to certain types of news. Rarely will I comment on recent book bans when bookshelves of doom does so with such veritable aplomb. However, the recent challenge made to remove Huck Finn from a school curriculum has been met with a response from the students themselves so interesting that I just had to link to it. Voila, the Save Huck Finn blog, created by the rather well-spoken students of St. Louis Park Senior High. I like where this is going. Ban a book, face an angry mob of kids. That would certainly make me think twice before trying to control what they read.

Thanks to bookshelves of doom for the link.
