Banned Books Week - Dangerous Ideas

It's Banned Books Week and we look at what makes a banned book. How does the culture of politics and society intersect when it comes to the censorship of certain materials? Pull up your favourite banned material and challenge ideas, as we speak to a literary critic, an author of five banned books and a publisher.

This report was produced by Sharyl Kaur, Aziff Azuddin, Aisyah Tajuddin, and Muhammad Haniff Baharudin.
