Pinocchio, the Banned Book

It's amazing, so many seemed to have missed the narrative. It''s not about noses growing but lying as a thing. I am amazed some 65 years later how powerfully this story impacted me in a positive way as a child. Unlike the censors today who see this as a story full of several disturbing topics including abusive behavior, kidnapping, and slavery, Italian or Jewish noses are caricatures that were nothing more than vehicles to illustrate how bad lying is. #Pinnicchio #Art #Improper #Censorship #SchoolBoards #Immagrants #Storytelling #Morality #Censorship #Morality #ArtThat It takes almost nothing to piss anyone off, and that's horrifying.
This is part of my Banned Book series in America, where we don't care what you think. We don't care what stories we are banning because we can't tell the difference between fact and fantasy We can pick on someone because of our religion, we have a higher moral purity to answer to. We don't care how many people are illiterate.
