How Can Banning Books Be Banned Essay

When you want something from someone, give them something instead.

Banning books will cut off lots of information that everyone needs to learn.

Banning books also makes it harder for kids because some kids might like certain books, If you take the books they like away from them then they will no longer wanna read.

As well as, some books might have a reason for banning but usually the reason is not to major. Sometimes kids can learn things in other ways then the easy way.

Jamie Leigh Talks about how banning books is not always the right thing to do. “You may not like something, but that doesn't mean you have to take it away from everyone else”.

Just because you wanna banned a book doesn't mean everyone else wants too. Lots of other people might also agree.

“If there is a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment, it is that the government may not prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable.” (Jamie Leigh pg 4).

What this means to me is that lots of people might want to ban a book but it would still have to grant the issue.

Again, even if the book is inappropriate or offensive others might not agree.

“With so many book challenges and bans arising every day across the nation, it’s not the children who need safeguarding; it’s the books.” (Jamie Leigh pg 4)

This quote means that sometimes it's not the children that need to be protected from the books its the books that need to be protected from the kids. This is very important because its actually true and also kinda sounds silly...

Additionally, this connects to banned books by showing that its not the books it's usually the kids/ people reading them.

Basically books are not the reason for being banned it is usually the reader that causes this.

”Where would we be as a nation—as a planet—without the writers who dared to battle our monsters, from the mundane to the epic, with their mighty pens?” (Jamie leigh pg

5).
“The Feminine Mystique was the spark that ignited second-wave feminism, and The Jungle prompted the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906.”Jamie leigh (page 4).
Banned books sometimes can have inappropriate or false information but that does not mean they should be banned?
All books have a meaning and you can always learn something from them. This is important because it teaches us a lot of things you never thought you would need to know.
“The founding of evolutionary biology in Darwin’s On the Origin of Species continues to impact scientific theory across the globe, and the African-American Civil Rights Movement can find roots in Native Son.” Jamie leigh ( page 4).
This quote means that books will always impact us and help us in many ways by giving us information.
It is important because it helps prove that books should not be banned and gives lots of reasoning.
Everyday we learn more and more from books that can help us. Books will always help us learn and create new things.

In conclusion books should not be banned. Books help in many ways and without them we would have nothing but people that could give false information.
In other words we revolve around books and books are one thing that help us survive...

In the end Books are great reference points and there is no reason for us to not like books.
