A literary classic has survived censorship efforts in a Florida school district, as educators continue to feel their way through vague rules and laws aimed at removing materials deemed inappropriate for children.
A seven-person committee of Pinellas County media specialists needed nearly three hours to determine the fate of Toni Morrison’s “The Bluest Eye,” which the superintendent’s staff had banned from high schools in January after a parent complained about a graphic 2-page rape scene in its pages. The novel has been removed from other districts, and is among the most challenged books in the nation.
