It's Banned Books week! You can find out more about banned and challenged books at the American Library Association site here or by checking out Banned Books Week.
I excerpted part of a quote from President Kennedy on this pattern.
If this nation is to be wise as well as strong, if we are to achieve our destiny, then we need more new ideas for more wise men reading more good books in more public libraries. These libraries should be open to all — except the censor. We must know all the facts and hear all the alternatives and listen to all the criticisms. Let us welcome controversial books and controversial authors. For the Bill of Rights is the guardian of our security as well as our liberty.-John F. Kennedy, Saturday Review (29 October 1960)
