ACLU of Oregon recently sent a public records request to the Canby School District, seeking information regarding their push this summer to consider restricting access to some book titles. The district initially pulled 36 books for consideration, but only banned one title in the end: “Lolita” by Vladimir Nabokov. Kelly Simon, legal director of the ACLU, tells us what legal issues should be considered when schools consider banning books. And Mary Masingila, the mother of a student at Canby High School, joins us to talk about what this issue has looked like in her community.
