I have Googled the heck out of this, but I have yet to find an explanation of why "On Beyond Zebra" and "If I ran the Zoo" are ceasing to be published. They cited racist imagery, but if I recall correctly, On Beyond Zebra was mainly fantasy type stuff. Does anyone have a copy of these books that can show what is racist about them? I tried to buy them online but they are now sold out everywhere.

It's comically easy to profit off of the woke movement these days.
I definitely read "If I Ran the Zoo" many times" and never noticed anything offensive.
Maybe this?

That's not bad.
The Sneetches was a great book to combat racism.

If anything, that Asian is being portrayed as strong!

Get your own river! Pookie, you are always looking for a handout.
You could make a lot of money repackaging Potato Head dolls as Mr. Potato Head and drive liberals crazy too!
White privilege means your Dad had a job. Good start but after that we were on our own.
just call them Freedom Fries.numskull
Sad to see book burners still exist. You gonna piss on a Van Gogh next?

Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with the image.
A bit cartoonish but . . . it's a cartoon.
The Muppets already got canceled. Gotta keep up, man.

Banning Dr Seuss, but embracing a programme called “White People Shît”...?
Does that make any sense at all?

How is this a "cancellation"? The show is obviously being broadcast--it says so right in the link--which is, literally, the exact opposite of being cancelled. What is wrong with you?

Nope. I'm going to go to a museum and piss on a Hopper for his voyeuristic ale gaze. I mean, as soon as I get out of prison for pissing on a Titian (all those objectified women).
(Seriously, what is wrong with you? Where is your brain that you make the jump from enriching the early-reader canon to, I think, literally urinating on paintings? Like, how do you function in life and in everyday relationships with other people if your sense of logic and reason--and I guess "humor"?--is this undeveloped?)

I can't stop laughing at the cover of this book
The latest is math instruction is inherently racist due to its focus on people getting the right answer, having to show work, etc. And the movement is funded by Bill Gates:

Guess my Asian friends didn't get that memo.

That article could have been written by The Onion. I mean, that is just absolutely demented. Out of all the woke nonsense I've read on this board, this one is pinnacle - it can't get more harmful and stupid. At least I think it can't.
That article is probably worthy of its own thread. Be fun to watch the usual nutcase liberals on LRC try to defend idiocy like "anti-racist math practice," "barriers to math equity," and the ultimate Onion-ish piece - eliminating "racist behaviors such as the 'focus' on 'getting the ‘right’ answer,' requiring students to 'show their work, and 'independent practice' being valued over teamwork or collaboration."
Good grief!
here's a tip. Take everything written in this right-wing rag with a grain of salt.

You can ignore the article if you want, or you can just look up the organization they are funding. Or you can just watch the commercials during any NFL game about a lack of access to STEM educations for African American Students. Now, they go to the same public schools my kids go to, so I don't really buy the narrative.
