Author Art Spiegelman says decision to ban Pulitzer-winning novel that depicts Jewish people as mice and Nazis as cats is ‘demented’

Maus from the eighth-grade curriculum, citing “rough, objectionable language” and sketches of naked women they deemed unsuitable for 13-year-old students.

grandmagrit I read Maus years ago. It is an important anti-fascist, anti-nazi, anti-hate book. And those that want to block such books are a-holes

It should to be read in every school ( including some UK schools where some “ books “( and democracy ), are banned ! 😂

Great! Buy copies for your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews & alma mater. The MORE who read about the Holocaust, the better we can protect ourselves now & in the future! “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.' -- Sir Winston Churchill

I usually just buy and read the books being made into blockbuster films before the film is released. But buying and reading banned books works as well. 🤓

Proof that no press is negative press. I have read that the objection to the book,even within context, is nudity and language, I guess Tik Toc, IG and Snapchat should be the only places that teens go for that type of copy.
