Wasn’t To Kill a Mockingbird part of the old anti-racism curriculum?

Maybe; it certainly is anti-racist. Back when I was in school, though, everything wasn’t all racism all the time.

Yes, it was a fixture in the liberal literary canon prior to the age of wokeness. Incidentally, I read it for the first time about five years ago.

It's also surprising to see The Crucible being purged from the liberal literary canon. It must not be woke enough.

Democrats in Mississippi banned it back in the day.
