Your Censorship Resources

Here are your censorship resources. Use these web sites to find out information about your topic on both sides of the issue. Look for specific court cases, struggles with school boards, speeches, well worded arguments, etc. Take notes (write down important events, phrases, proofs, etc.) so that you will have enough background info to refute anything that the opposite team throws at you.
