Yeah, let's burn down the libraries so we can be free from the oppressive thoughts of old white men.

[FrankR]

Then, why...when I visit our local library...are there so many blacks in there you can’t find a seat?

Maybe we should re-publish all books on black paper, with white ink?

Anything to bitch about that might bring them a buck or two.

[KarlInOhio]

To fight “The Oppressive Whiteness of Books” I’ll read a book by Thomas Sowell or Walter Williams.

[Jim Robinson]

Burn all the books written by straight white men (and presumably straight white women), there won’t be many books left on the shelves.

Shakespeare is being torn down as any kind of notable writer and replaced with ‘modern greats’.

Even in trivial areas I see young people saying that the Beatles no longer belong in the canon of rock and roll.

[Lent]

“Shakespeare, Milton, Dante, Plutarch, Freud—

Oh those are such benign works. What about Marx, Engels, Lenin... may as well clean it all out!

[blueplum]

It is perfectly normal for a Caucasian culture to have a majority of books in their libraries that are written about Caucasian culture and history.

Just as it’s perfectly normal for (insert culture here) cultures to have books in their libraries that are written about their own cultures.

It’s the height of audacity to live in a Caucasian culture and complain about that culture. Would one go to Messico and complain they have too many books in Latin for their 0.5% black folk? Or go to Japan and complain that the street signs are in Japanese and not Farsi?

America is not an international hotel.

Having a written language is an expression of whiteness. So are discovering and using the wheel, metallurgy, domesticating animals, the rule of law, and a host of other things known collectively as “civilization.”

[Freedom4US]

What a wackjob. Do everyone a favor and GTFO.

The article under discussion in The Bulwark piece by Charles Sykes is by an "academic librarian." I've known one or two of those, and they are often way, way out there in left field.

[ronnie raygun]

Enough

[rintintin]

Sorry I won’t click on Bulwark.

It’s run by bitter Never-Trumper Bill Kristol who has blasted Tucker Carlson for coming “close now to racism, white — I mean, I don’t know if it’s racism exactly — but ethno-nationalism of some kind” (https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/01/25/bill_kristol_tucker_carlson_and_fox_news_have_become_ethno-nationalist.html)

So Bill Kristol hurls white “racism” smears kind of like the hate-Shakespeare crowd denounces “whiteness”

[Pearls Before Swine]

Well, in response, I could start in about the incredible gayness of contemporary Hollywood and TV production. It’s crowding out normal, non-perv imagery.

Librarians are on the academic super highway to a New Dark Ages.

“I like cats, whiskey, intersectional feminism, social justice, critical librarianship, & CRT [Critical Race theory].”

Books be raciss!
Reading be raciss!

Universities have gone full retard.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

per article:

Sofia Leung, whose Twitter profile describes her as an “academic librarian. I like cats, whiskey, intersectional feminism, social justice, critical librarianship, & CRT [Critical Race theory].

She is a bitter, childless, menopausal alcoholic man-hating harpy who was unable to get and keep a husband. She lives alone with her cats and empty whiskey bottles. Her resentment and anger at her barren life will be vented on white male authors and their books.

I like cats, whiskey, intersectional feminism, social justice, critical librarianship, & CRT [Critical Race theory].

I started laughing halfway through the list. Only surprised at the whiskey entry. Which, incidentally, was invented by...

“I’m a second generation Chinese American and native New Yorker currently living in the Boston area. I’m the Teaching and Learning Program Manager and liaison to the department of Comparative Media Studies/Writing at the MIT Libraries. I believe that social justice work is library work and that we should all be collectively engaged in our liberation. My current research is on the intersections of Critical Race Theory and Library and Information Science and I speak on a number of topics, mostly related to social justice and libraries, critical pedagogy, and critical librarianship.”

It’s called Western Civilization you stupid cnut.

“If this is the case, then Granville Woods was certainly a respected inventor as he was often referred to as the “Black Thomas Edison.”

Granville Woods was born on April 23, 1856 in Columbus, Ohio.”

Granted 50 patents. Proved that blacks with ability could succeed even in a white dominated world.
