Mark Crispin Miller of NYU discusses some of the recent additions to his Forbidden Bookshelf series, which seeks out important out-of-print political works and republishes them as e-books; Miller explains the insidious ways the books were first "disappeared." Next, Peter Hart with the National Coalition Against Censorship speaks about this year's Banned Books Week, and some of the means -- short of outright banning -- which keep important books away from students. The program concludes with Gerry Condon of Vets for Peace, speaking about the historic vessel Golden Rule, brought to San Francisco as part of a protest against the U.S. Navy's annual Fleet Week activities there.
