 n<p>Conservative activists and parents have put pressure on local schools 
 and library boards to remove certain books from their collections. Many of
  the targeted titles feature LGBTQ and other minority characters\, beloved
  by young adult readers who want to see themselves reflected in literature
 . Critics of these titles label them as obscene or inappropriate for kids.
  But who gets to decide?&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The film includes interviews with:
