back then it was necessary because there was still so much outright institutional racism
That is not from a book but from a series of propaganda cartoons he drew during World War II.
Point still stands, a book with that in it would not be in my classroom.
have to ban operas… Rossini’s anti Spanish “Barber of Seville” sung in Italian no less…

By the way, the “columnist” who decided Seuss and Speedy have to go? Charles Blow, the Romney “magic underwear” guy.
Black privilege.

He didn’t decide…the decision was made before Blow’s column came out.
And anti-Mormons have been calling Mormons’ temple garments “magic underwear” from time immemorial…long before Blow sent that tweet.
Someone’s bias is showing.

Sure, sure. Just a coincidence.
No he didn’t. Seuss told you why. Listen to them, not your head.
Black people have more power to cancel children’s/ shows and books, than White people?

Yeah, he did.
Black privilege dictates “magic underwear guy” can attack people based on religious beliefs without repercussions.

Depends on intersectionality. There is definitely a concerted effort to cancel certain cultures and replace them with others; and it’s working.
A fundamental transformation as it were. Your industry is certainly doing its part.

Oh don’t be modest. The entertainment industry is a huge culture generator. Perhaps the biggest today.

What are they doing though? What part are they playing?

Not really. Intersectionality tells us it’s not possible for a black guy to be prejudiced. Just about anything and everything he says gets a pass because: slavery.
Of course if he mentions BIPOC lesbians his pass gets revoked. Works for the group as well, remember Prop 8?

Generating culture. Determining good and evil. Indoctrinating.
Marcuse even mentioned it by name.
