Reviews:

"Unmistakable integrity ignites Bryan Davidson and Kim Dunbar's Banned and Burned in America...this exploration of censorship's national implications conveys acute topical purpose and kinetic cohesion...authors Davidson and Dunbar surmount the academic contours with notable imagination...the most ingratiating consciousness-raiser since "Nickel and Dimed" at the Taper--catnip for inquiring minds, required viewing for closed ones.

L.A. Times, David C. Nichols

...when a black student refuses to read a scene from To Kill a Mockingbird, and is tried in an administrative hearing for slugging a peer who torments him, the twists and turns of political correctness through the halls of censorship become riveting.

L.A. Weekly, Steven Leigh Morris

The Greenway Court Theatre puts its stamp on Banned Books Week with Banned and Burned in America, a well-structured and vividly dramatic dissection of the controversial issues that confront librarians and libraries everywhere.

CurtainUp, Laura Hitchcock
