280 Words2 Pages

The ongoing controversial autobiography of Adolf Hitler and what should be done with his writings has been a very popular subject. Many think that the book should be banned and not published in different parts of the world. I personally think that Mein Kampf should be unbanned. Although Hitler 's inner thoughts can be viewed as gruesome and inhumane, it is still part of history and should remain in the back of the minds of Germans. Some think that certain chapters of this book should be banned from the public eye. I disagree with this, citizens have the right to be able to read the works of their past leader and all of the sickening thoughts that went through his head. They should not be limited to these things and held back from the total

    One of the key principles that make the country great is our freedom to say, write, and read whatever we want.

Rarely do these people stop and consider the dire effects book banning might have on both students and society as a whole. An author does not write because they are looking to offend someone, they right because they have a story to share. The First Amendment of the Constitution not only works to protect this right to the fullest extent possible, but also serves to protect the rights of the people that choose to be offended by these stories.

    Shatoni Madison February 3.2016 Writing Wednesday Recently, several English teachers have decided to teach a certain book to their classes that contains questionable material normally not allowed in schools, including poor language, sexuality, and violence. They claim that the book has many redeeming qualities about it, and also is a great tool for teaching students reading and analytical skills. In my opinion, teachers should be permitted to teach these questionable book to their students. If an author's work was to be tampered with I feel as if many books will lose their value and or the meaning the author was trying to convey.

    During WWII and the Holocaust the victims, being the Jews or anybody else that was not perceived to be part of the Aryans, or the Master Race, were subjected to suffering and pain that is so gruesome that it is difficult to comprehend unless you were actually present during the events. The victims deserve justice and the people responsible deserve to be punished. Many of the victims perhaps desire revenge, however, a strict punishment or embarrassment could cause future conflict and aggression. The Treaty of Versailles shows this in action. WWII was a continuation of WWI because of how Germany was destroyed by the strict terms in the treaty so a less provoking form of punishment should be found.
