Episode description
In this episode of #VelshiBannedBookClub, Citizen Board Member and MSNBC host Ali Velshi talks to Laurie Halse Anderson about her book: Speak (one of the most banned books in the country). Labeled by its critics as pornographic, Speak explores assault and consent-based sexuality in a young adult setting. "You would think people would find the educational system...the right place to talk about these things," Anderson said.
