This matters because...

Something I learned from this video is that the banned books were mainly banned for having lbgtq+ elements, sexual elements, or legal rights elements. because they didn't want younger people to know about these elements, their sexuality, and rights etc.

Something I learned from this video is the fact that no matter the era, no matter the place, people will always be against something (in this case books); especially when it challenges their personal worldview.

This matters because of the fact that if there's only one worldview we'll know how will we ever progress? How will we ever get out of our old ways? After all, our existence is to make the next generation have it better than we did.

I learned that commonly people do not ban books for actual harmful information but instead because of "harmful ideas" that promote new perspectives that aren't commonly represented through written media. Also books aren't even often banned for what they say they are with most books being challenged for "explicit content" not even containing anything worth speaking out against.

Watching this video, I learned that generally, it is people who think conservatively that ban books. Older people tend to forget that young people deserve to have a voice just as well as them.

Young people having voices is so crucial in order to move the world forward. This is one of the most important things for the future of the world.

Books bans are being very common in America with thousands are being banned. And hundreds being banned every year. Anti Police are being banned and anything that had to with race or not. NCAA and another organization is helping authors and families to unban books. There are book clubs for teenagers to read banned books to learn and understand why they are banned.

Something I learned from this video is that the books that got banned had LGBTQ+, sexual stuff, race, and rights because they didn't want young people to read books that had any of these.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video is that books that are being banned and have been banned for a long time happen to almost always be about LGBTQ, Race elements, and Sexual elements. People are so scared about talking about what's wrong that they will ban and get rid of anything that even states that people who are apparently in control are bad.

This matters because people don't learn about problems that the world has, Race, gender and equality. That people like me and you don't get to learn, watch out and stand up for what is wrong. We should be able to do that, and I think reading what is banned, and what is challenged is the best way to learn the hard truth, and stand up for what we know is wrong!

Something i learned from the video is that parents take lines and parts of the books out of context to make them seem inappropriate. This matters because it shows that yes there is some graphic parts but taking them out of context makes it seem worse like for example the book could or been about an SA victim writing about their experience.

# data[].attributes.body
something i learned from this is video is that, most of these banned book were banned mostly because of LGBTIQ, nudity, or because of a personal experience that people finds offensive. This matter because books getting banned for being offensive is not fair to people who do want to read the books or find it enjoyable。

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video is that books are being banned because of the content that are in the books. For example, sexual assault, racism, homophobia, etc. This is important because people that are banning books don't see the actual message the author is trying to send and banning the book is actually proving the author's point and this could affect many generations since they can't speak their mind because if they do they will silenced and judged like all of these books.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that I learned from the video, is that if a parent sends a request to ban a book and the employee doesn't get rid of it, the worker gets fired even if the book isn't bad. This matters because parents are starting to ban more and more books that are actually good for the younger generation to read.

# data[].attributes.body
Something i learned was that there are actively alot of people fighting against the banning of books. This matters because its important to fight for the freedom to read what we want and not have stuff taken away from us. When certain books are banned that reflect on an individuals experiences, its almost like saying those experiences dont matter when banning the book, and this is wrong. We live in a free country so why are books with history and experiences of individuals and groups of people being banned?

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video is that banned books were mainly banned for having lbgtq, sexual, racist, not safe for work, or legal elements that didn't sit right with adults that led them to ban these books.

This matters because... we know that SOME of these banned books should be banned and were probably banned because parent didn't want their child to fall victim to them, but the only one i agree with is the not so safe work books, that have sexual elements because you don't know if a elementary student is reading these types of books, and i think not safe for work books should only be allowed to high schoolers because they are more mature and maybe more ready for these sexual elements just not the younger ones.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from the video is books are being banned because of graphic stuff that families and schools don't want to show their kids at that specific age. Sometimes books about race and anti police get banned from schools and kids wont be able to find the books. This matters because this is the reason why some books are being banned.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from the video that we watched was that the banning of books is mostly due to parents. Books that are banned are usually LGBTQ+, Sexual topics, or peoples rights. Adults do not want their kids/students to know about these things because of age or some raise their children in a more strict matter.

# data[].attributes.body
Something i learned from this video is that they are banning the books that are about race, LGBTQ+, And sexual things. This matters because they aren't letting students or young people learn about important things in life like what's wrong in the sexual aspect. Or why racism is wrong or what you might identify as.

# data[].attributes.body
something i learned from this video, is that the book Uncle Toms cabin was banned in 1852. It is one of the earliest banned books. It sparked so much controversy. This matters because, it shows that books have been getting banned for centuries. While there has been an increase of banned books there has also been an increase of people speaking up, and trying to improve the banned book rate.

# data[].attributes.body
Somethings I learned from the video, is that they are banning funny kid books, books with sexual content, and books student/human rights. To some people, it can spark a lot of controversy and just don't want the kids to learn about it.

# data[].attributes.body
This matters because it is a form of censorship that can limit access to diverse viewpoints, and maybe harm education.

# data[].attributes.body
What I learned from the video is, people like parents just send a letter to the school board to ban a book because they don't want their children reading it. And if the employee doesn't ban it they get fired.

This matters because the books that are getting band are books that are educational, that reflect on real world problems, and books that kids and teens can connect too.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned about banned books in the video is that they're getting banned for being to explicit and graphic for children and for being Lgbtqia+ and touching sensitive topics like Sexual harassment and racial profiling and police brutality. This is important/matters because kids are getting disconnected from books that touch these topics and make them unable to learn about them in general, these books help the young people understand more about the world and how some people get treated for being who they are or what they are as people. These books also matter because some share their experiences of being Lgbtqia+, racially profiled, and apart of being a different race. Another reason why this matter is important is because some kids are relating to these books and when books like those get banned they would feel invalidated and like they don't matter and that normal white heterosexual books are better then Lgbtqia+ and other race main characters.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from the video is that the books are being banned by politicians and parent groups. they are banning them because they see ideas in the books they are trying to ban as being harmful while in those books they are not actually harmful but are about they are personally against (books about anti racism, anti sexual assault and the LGBTQ+ experience.)

This matters because when you ban these books it takes silences the voices of those who especially need it, we will never really learn about anything if we don't have the access to learning about it from non highly filtered resource.

as well as for example when somebody is a LGBTQ+ person and a book that relates to how they are is banned, they can feel discriminated against and like their identity is invalidated.

This film taught me that many books that discuss the effects of racism or include LGBTQ youth are being banned. This matters because taking these books away blocks students from learning about different cultures and viewpoints, which makes it harder for them to understand how other people feel (empathy) and to build strong, independent thinking skills. Since these bans unfairly focus on stories about groups like kids of color or LGBTQ+ youth, it sends a really horrible message that their lives and experiences are not important enough to be shared in school.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video is that banned books are mostly banned because of parents because they think that these topics cannot be handled by their children and young adults. These topics mostly include racism/political and sexuality. This matters because if kids are seeing books that are getting banned that are related to them they wonder if what they are is wrong. They aren't able to learn about problems in the real life world and aren't able to get educated in valuable lessons that happens in everyday life. This is why it matters to not mindlessly ban books just because of their 'harsh' topics.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video is that a lot of these banned books are books that you can learn from and topics including LGBTQ, slavery, sexual topics. This matters because the people who are banning books often belief that children should be protected from certain topics that they think are inappropriate. Banning these books means that students miss the opportunity to develop a bigger understanding of history.

# data[].attributes.body
Something I learned from this video was that books are not being banned within a serious reason but for the ideas and information in books. Even some parental groups are concerned and are going to schools to report about books.

This matters because certain books may help children find themselves, learn historical backgrounds, sex education, and race. People learn by reading or seeing visual pictures that the author may include with their books and this helps kids to get information that they wonder about.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing I learned from this video is that the books that got banned had controversial topics like race and anti police topics and sexual topics. This matters because government and school communities and families want to take these books off the shelf. This shouldn't happen because people need to learn about certain stuff and we can't be hiding information.

# data[].attributes.body
Something i learned from the video is a bunch of the topic is about stuff such as Slavery, Sexual topic, or even LGBTQ. This matters because so many adults believe the children should be yielded from these "Inappropriate topics". If these books get banned then children miss the opportunity to develop a real understanding of history.
