“Maus” Author: TN School Board Wants a "Gentler Holocaust"
A wave of book-banning is washing over America, and Art Spiegelman is its latest target. His acclaimed graphic novel about the Holocaust, "Maus," was recently banned by a TN school board. The reason cited by the board is content that includes nudity, profanity and violence -- this in reference to a book about a concentration camp. Spiegelman discusses what this trend could mean for U.S. democracy.
