I used to serve on the library board. Half the book challenges were people on the left trying to remove something dangerous to the community.


Like...?

I remember someone challenging a picture book from the 60s where a teddy bear spanked a doll because it was too mysoginystic.

Not sure why you would object to punishing a misogynist doll, but ok.


This is telling:

Quote:

Outsiders got a glimpse of the intensity of the #DisruptTexts campaign recently when self-described “antiracist teacher” Lorena Germán complained that many classics were written more than 70 years ago: “Think of US society before then & the values that shaped this nation afterwards. THAT is what is in those books.”


Is this not exactly the erasure that the tiki torch crowd has been ranting about?

Damn those Danes and their colonizing of... Greenland? Clearly they need to provide voice over work to the long oppressed residents of Greenland and Iceland, for the sake of equity.

Sometimes a plain winter coat is just a plain winter coat. And sometimes large knit mittens are just large knit mittens.

And sometimes a senator attending an inauguration is just a senator attending an inauguration.


sheesh...

bernie didn't dress spiffy enough for the inauguration, because he's a privileged white man and doesn't have to.
