“Banned in Boston” should be a good selling point for these books then.

No, not censored by Seuss, but those who inherited his stuff. Think of the Ford Foundation. Henry Ford would be apoplectic if he were around to witness the Ford Foundation's evil done in his name.

From the article:

In 2017, a school librarian in Cambridge, Massachusetts, criticized a gift of 10 Seuss books from first lady Melania Trump, saying many of his works were “steeped in racist propaganda, caricatures, and harmful stereotypes.”

Just leafed through "And to Think I Saw it on Mulberry Street" and "If I Ran the Zoo."

I'm wondering what exactly is offensive to these low-thinking morons. The management of Seuss' legacy should be taken away from them.

Heard on talk radio this morning.

A generation raised on Southpark and Beevis and Butthead
is now offended by Dr. Seuss. (facepalm)

I would expect morning less from a country with Joe Chi Minh at the helm.

OK, lefties, especially white lefties, must believe that blacks, Hispanics, Asians, etc. are the biggest pu$$ies in the world and that we’d be butthurt over every little thing, including an animated children’s book. Who is the condescending racist here?
