NYU professor Mark Crispin Miller on his Forbidden Bookshelf series of banned books (1/15/19)

The Forbidden Bookshelf is a series of formerly banned books with the stated aim of “filling in the blanks of America’s repressed history by resurrecting books that focused on issues and events that are too often left in the dark, including abortion, organized crime, the CIA and financial inequality.” In this installment of “Leonard Lopate at Large,” Leonard talks to NYU professor of media studies Mark Crispin Miller who curates the series, about why he chose the works he did and discusses the complicated history behind some of the selections.
