The Cancel Culture has struck again. No one is safe. I repeat, no one is safe.

Their newest target is the legendary Dr. Seuss and practically every book that he’s ever written.

Do you want to know what they have against How the Grinch Stole Christmas? They claim that it is filled with white dominance as well as a master narrative with white narration and speaking roles. That’s one of the minor ones.

There are other books such as If I Ran the Zoo where they allege that the book contains anti-blackness sentiments such as subservience, dehumanization, stereotypes, caricatures, and exotification. There are other books that allege the same thing for “orientalism” like in Oh, the Places You’ll Go.

Now, as a parent of a young child, I’ll admit that I have come across some questionable books. Most of the time, it does come from older books and it’s usually just something that I don’t think kids should be hearing necessarily.

For example, a kid calling another kid an idiot in a book I think steps over the line and I don’t think is conducive to teaching good behavior. I think that one way we can help change the world is through properly raising our children and teaching them the right way to behave.

My son has no idea what race is, he has no understanding of the concept of insulting someone by calling them a name. There is no place in society for this sort of behavior so why teach it to begin with?

Certainly, there will come a day when he’ll need to learn that people do that sort of thing, but it’s not while he’s 5 or 6 years old. We shouldn’t be in any hurry to rush the growing-up process of our children. They’re only little for a little while.

These people attacking Dr. Seuss’s books are really doing some gymnastics to try and twist these books into being an example of white supremacy.
