Calling all fellow book lovers

Hey guys,
As some of you know, I watch a video blog called brotherhood 2.0. Recently on this blog was this video describing how a young adult author's book just got banned from a school library for containing homosexual characters. Now, we aren't talking lurid sex scenes even, the most explicit thing is some kissing. Please join me and the thousands of others who are e-mailing the members of this board and making sure they know how we feel about censorship. I mean come on there is a gay sesame street character now! I think high school kids can handle it.

While I despise censorship except in a very few specific cases (photographic child pornography, for instance), I find that I'm just too lazy to do anything about it.

However, I will probably buy and read this book just to be a rebel.
