Just like all art, one of the valid functions of literature is to make people think by making them uncomfortable. This decision neuters their reading list.

There are they are, they are in the schools... lol

 

[WillowTree]

Nothing at all stops a good parent from purchasing the book and reading it with their child!

 

[Blackrook]

The book accurately portrays a time when Democrats were in charge of the South and the blacks were victimized by rampant racism.

These loons think Dr Suess is racist, there is no end to their insanity

That's what you get when you build those evil casino's and bring outsiders in to run them. Those GD progressives. We don't want their kind down here.

The left has made the name Lee toxic so surly you can't be surprised by this when ESPN pulled an Asian broadcaster Robert Lee from doing the University of Virginia home opener because of his name the big leap down the rabbit hole of stupid was underway.

8Th graders can read it for themselves.

The cultural Marxists (lefty liberals) want to scrub American society clean of its legacy and history.

Much like Chairman Mao did to China during the 1960's. ....

But it's your job to make sure left-wing books with material offensive to Christians, stays in the library so children have full access.

Got it.
