About the episode

When Morley Safer traveled to West Virginia in 1975 to report on a fight over books in schools, he couldn't have known how that conflict would help lay the blueprint for many contemporary challenges over what students are allowed to read. In our first "second look," we revisit a battle that informs our current day culture wars by talking to the people who bore witness fifty years ago. Plus, insights from a 60 Minutes producer on his latest reporting on book banning in 2024. This episode originally aired on September 17, 2024.
