Episode Synopsis

For this episode, I'm delighted to welcome Pearl Quinn (an archivist), and Sandra Godkin (a librarian), to talk about the film where Bette Davis plays a small town librarian who safeguards free speech. Bette refuses to fold when the city council full of stuffed shirts orders a book removed from the shelves. This picture offers so many contemporary parallels on issues such as freedom, privacy, scapegoating, and sexism.
