Before Dr. Suess, there was Dick and Jane. Dick and Jane is what was used for my education at school. Dr. Suess who was too controversial for public schools.
“A classmate told her the sticker was racist because many people can’t choose what they want to do because of structural racism.”
Better answer would be your classmate is a liar.

What, he really did like green eggs and ham???
Unless your “daughter” is actually a guy you have nothing to worry about.
The only institutionalized bigotry in the US today is against white males.
No - just the socialists who lie that groups have no choices but what government gives them.
Complain to the school. These people (NYT) are insane. Wouldn’t the quote support full equality and even gender selection? What is controversial about having feet and a brain?
Democrats are evil.
I was hoping she'd peel it off and stick it over the stupid kid's mouth.
The kid that said this is racist has been “BRAIN WASHED”! I have had many black friends that have succeeded. Education is needed but personal willingness to choose to succeed is needed. If one chooses to fail you will fail. Not everyone will be at the same point in life. There are easier roads for some. But, not all whites succeed. The biggest advantage is having at least one parent who seriously does their best to succeed. To inspire you to do better. That is what is needed. However we now have families with multiple generations only interested in welfare.
She’ll learn about racism when she applies for college and discovers that admissions officers have different sets of standards for applicants depending on their race. She may need higher grades than her peers to get ‘acctepted’.

A 12 year old classmate shouldn't know about alleged 'structural racism' let alone lecture a classmate on the subject.
Adults are poisoning the minds of young children for political purposes.
These children are now victims of the idiot adults and screwed up for life because they now believe there's nothing they can do to better their lives.
This is mental child abuse.
My mom once served me green eggs and ham.
Did He lie to Our kids? Not mine His Teachings were not allowed in our Home.
The bigger question is: “Does the New York Times constantly lie to our kids (and to us)”.
The answer is yes.
I can imagine a 12 year-old already completely indoctrinated. The kid will have a job with the Thought Police in a few years, if the Socialists win.
Assassinate a teacher?

Inner city black culture is a pathway to failure.
The Lorax was total propaganda, though.
I remember as a kid how I just didnt like that book (I generally did not like Dr. Seuss being a Richard Scarry, and Chris Van Allsburg fan), and I could never put my finger on it at the time.
