According to the current list of #bannedbooks as collected by #PEN, the Frisco Independent School District in #Texas has apparently banned #TheLordOfTheRings and #TheHobbit by #JRRTolkien.
It’s a mind boggling assembly of works and authors on this list. Aside from brilliant fiction like Tolkien and @neilhimself, the list includes names like #StephenHawking or #MartinLutherKingJr.
Truly, the list is an astonishing monument to willful ignorance, perfidy and malice.

Why? (The King of Love is Dead)
Today is the 55th anniversary of the assassination of #MartinLutherKingJr. Sadly, the eternally conflicted media may focus on a lifelong criminal and vile conman. Only one represents a life of inspiration
