    Mark Twain, William Shakespeare, Harriet Beecher Stowe; these authors share more than just a legacy of classic literature and a place in school curriculums. They’re authors whose works have been banned from classrooms over the years for content some deemed controversial or obscene.

    Across the country, books are once again being challenged in schools and libraries, with librarians holding the line to make sure there’s access to materials some find inappropriate. Here in Idaho, the pressure to remove books from library shelves is coming from activist groups and the GOP party.

    Dr. Jonathan Friedman, the director of free expression and education programs at PEN America, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about book banning.

    Have you ever lost something in your backyard? A coffee cup? A child’s toy?

    Decades later, the things left behind in a backyard can tell archeologists a lot about who lived there and the image they wanted to project to the world.

    That’s what Dr. William White found when he started digging up backyards in 2015 in Boise’s River Street neighborhood, an area where African Americans and immigrants were forced to live more than 100 years ago.

    Dr. White is an assistant professor of anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley and the author of the book, Segregation Made Them Neighbors: An Archaeology of Racialization in Boise, Idaho.
