Friday First Amendment Film Festival

In celebration of Banned Books Week, I am kicking off the Una Scribbles First Amendment Film Festival. Every other Friday, I am going to view a film or video production on the American Library Association's suggestion list that depicts "the impact of censorship on individuals and society." The ALA's list is below. Whew! I am going to be a busy beaver. Please stop by the blog to join in the latest discussion. First up, Inherit the Wind.
