How about a list of people who read Little Black Sambo to their kids?
************************
I had that book when I was a kid in the ‘40s.
Amazing, isn’t it, that the racists have banned such books and great movies like “Songs of the South” with Uncle Remus telling stories about Brer Fox, Brer Bear, Brer Rabbit, Tar Baby, etc., all in animation.
I had ancestors who owned slaves. I also had ancestors who immigrated into the Colonies as indentured servants.
I have a copy of Little Black Sambo and I cannot wait to read it to my granddaughter. It is a beautiful little book - the drawings are just lovely, the poetry is wonderful, and the plot!! - I mean, the tigers put the shoes on their ears! It’s just so charming. I’m darned if a granddaughter of mine will be constrained by the book-burners.
