Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows launch
RedMum | July 23, 2007Some of us here met up the other evening for the midnight launch of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I wrote about it on my own blog which you can read here, but I thought I’d post some photographs from the other night here. I’m sure Decs will add more at some stage and you can see more on my Flickr account here.
  
Who decides which books get press (Harry Potter) and which get censored? After all, censorship is becoming America’s favorite past-time. The US gov’t (and their corporate friends), already detain protesters, ban books like “America Deceived” from Amazon and Wikipedia, shut down Imus and fire 21-year tenured, BYU physics professor Steven Jones because he proved explosives, thermite in particular, took down the WTC buildings. Free Speech forever (especially for books).
