You will be compiling your bibliography and creating an outline of the changes you will make in this sandbox.

Outline of proposed changes

 * Over the coming weeks, I plan to edit the "Harry Potter" and "Religious" sections of this article.
 * As it stands, the section of the article detailing religiously-based book bans is significantly lacking in the detail that other sections have. I plan to mention religious objections to public schools through the lens of the First Amendment and delve into religious objections based on witchcraft, science/evolution, and obscenity. These changes will bring the article to the same level of detail and nuance as other sections of the article. While there is already a section on book banning based on sexual content, my edits will incorporate more information on how religious groups see books containing sexual or "obscene" content as worthy of banning and the challenges to these attempts (Allen, Reuters)). I will talk more about the recent surge in book challenges in the United States, and discuss how challenges to the Bible highlight existing polarization with regards to this issue (Wilson). Additionally, I will provide context to the relationship of the First Amendment to book bans in public schools, citing, for example, the Cedarville case (Justia).
 * The Harry Potter section will branch off of the earlier discussion of how religious leaders and parents object to mentions of witchcraft and the occult. I will offer more detailled summaries of these objections and use additional examples of challenges to Harry Potter. I will also talk about the aspects of the Cedarville case that relate most specifically to the content in Harry Potter (Justia).
 * I also plan to fix some issues with misreferenced citations in these sections.
