The list of books and artists banned by the Chinese regime continues to grow. On Aug. 29, a media outlet reported that several schools received a new list of prohibited books sent to students’ parents. The list includes the works of the cartoonist Guo Jingxiong, the Taiwanese writer Lung Ying-tai and the writer Yi Zhongtian, among others.

These authors are well known for their artistic quality, commitment to truth, and convictions when expressing themselves in their works.
