Other than the book won awards I have no clue.
I can’t figure out why it won awards.
It won awards because the judges are of like mind.
And this is why my future children will NOT be attending public schools.
Probably the awards came from Liberal orgs.
Because it paints white people as racist.
That's easy. It won "awards" (notice no one can tell you which awards, or from whom) because it's filth that only degenerate lefties would love for kids. That is a fact.
I offer this example from my own life: When one of my daughters was a junior in high school, she was enrolled in an Honors English class. They were assigned, as part of their course work, a Toni Morrison (a black wench who is the absolute darling of the left) "novel" to read. In the first two pages of the book was a graphic description...and I mean GRAPHIC...of incestual rape. It only went downhill from there.
I wish I was kidding. Saw it with my own eyes.
I was furious. Her mother was furious. We called a meeting with the principal and the teacher.
Keep in mind this is a new high school in a very upscale neighborhood.
We show up, and in the principal's office sit the "teacher" and the head of the school's English department. You probably guessed it: The "teacher" was some dumpy, bespectacled 20-something who I can guarantee you never got asked for a date in her life. All she was missing was sensible shoes, best I could tell. Uber-lib....idiot.
I'll summarize by saying I proceeded to eviscerate this little bitch in front of her bosses (the principal seemed bemused; I called his sorry ass on that, too....but the English Dept. head, a middle aged woman, seemed very uncomfortable). I never once raised my voice....which was very hard.
When it was time to wrap up, I leaned forward in my chair toward this little snot-nosed, sarcastic little bitch....and I said the following:
"Some day, young lady, you may actually get lucky and be asked to get married. Not sure in your case, but it's possible. You're still young. Then, you will probably have children. One day, and I guarantee it will happen, one of your kids will pick up the remote control and "surf" to some TV channel with content you will NOT want them to see. You will find yourself diving for that remote to change the channels IMMEDIATELY."
"When that day happens.........I want you to remember this conversation today."
The same reason Obama won the nobel prize. The left uses awards and honors as a propaganda vehicle to validate and break down the ignorant and the weaks resistance. It covers librarians that order the book for the library by allowing them plausible deniability by saying... “ Well it was a winner of the Blah blah blah award and we order those books every year.”
That is how it works. .... any questions?
