Maybe I'm having a senior moment, but I thought the issue had definitely
come up this January...
> I agree that having a descriptive subject line is better than excluding
issues which may be politically sensitive. I really find all the points
of view educational, one way or another, and would hate to see ALSB
getting what strikes me as overly exclusive. Also, I think it would be
difficult to decide what, even according to the most sensitive, is
overly political rather than legal (and that in itself would be a
political decision, surely!)
For example, how do you talk about things like the surveillance programs,
which clearly involve legal issues, without there being some arguably
political component? And wouldn't a discussion of say, the Scopes Monkey
Trial, be bound to involve religion?
just my two cents worth.
