The Hidden (and Not-So-Hidden) Racism In Kids' Lit
>Revisiting a favorite children's book packs a powerful emotional punch. For many mothers and fathers, sharing the books their parents read to them with their own kids, decades later, is one of the highlights of the early years. But oftentimes stories and illustrations that seemed benign in one era become problematic as social mores change.
>In his new book, Was the Cat in the Hat Black? The Hidden Racism of Children's Literature, and the Need for Diverse Books, Philip Nel studies the paradox of stories that are meant to nurture but can also do harm. An English professor at Kansas State University, Nel has probed racism in kids' books in his classes and in previous books, and he uses this volume to highlight how dozens of beloved picture and chapter books leave negative messages in children's minds. "No one wants to admit to enjoying something or liking something that perpetuates racial stereotypes. But we do, because a book can be beautiful and racist, a book can be a classic and racist, a book can be really pleasurable and also really racist." For instance, one of Nel's personal favorites, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, has a big problem in the Oompa Loompas. The characters, which were depicted in early editions as African pygmies, are portrayed as happy slaves, content to leave their native land behind and toil in a factory. Especially for children who are descendants of slaves, such messages can have a pernicious effect on how they interpret their value in the world.
>>
>So should parents abstain from reading offensive classics to their children? "I would respect the parent who made that choice," Nel says. But on the other hand, "There's also a reason to read them with children, becauseracismexists in the world. Children are going to encounter it, and a safer way to learn how to encounter it is via fiction. If you're reading a racist children's book with a child, you can help them read it critically, you can help them learn that it's okay to be angry at a book."

>Here's how you interpret a book if you're a postmodernist. You don't read the book and try to understand what utility might be extracted out of it to guide you in your life. That's the old system. The new system is: you read the book, and you analyze it in terms of whose social position of power it justifies. So you look for who the supremacist is, in the text. It could be the author, it could be the characters, it doesn't matter. You read the text as if all it does is reflect on the current, corrupt power structure in modern society. And that's the beginning of literary criticism under the social justice regime.
>And none of this is subtle. These people have gone way beyond subtle. We have Social Justice Tribunals in Ontario. They're named that. The educators in Ontario have already decided that the goal of the education system is to indoctrinate children from from kindergarden-- from kindergarden-- into a radical, postmodern, leftist, communitarian, equity-oriented ethos. That's what they're doing. Even math and science are put under that umbrella. Just go online and download the documents.
>The Ontario Human Rights Commission should be abolished. It's a very dangerous and subversive organization. The people who are producing the educators that emerge from that institute should be put on trial for treason.

>when you just say that there is a white privilege out in the aether and that by birth your skin color generates for you an advantage, what you're really saying to people is your view is less valuable because you have no experienced what [women, black people, LGBT people] have experienced. That is an identity argument, that's a character argument, that's not a rational, political argument that can actually be taken on in any way. It's more of a cudgel or a club than it is a way to open up a discussion.

Yeah, and then cleaned it all up after scaring them half to death, since they knew their parents would be pissed if they made a mess of the house (and would not believe it to be the actions of a giant magical talking cat).

Sneetches was a good story with a good moral. Don't go about judging people for their appearances alone, otherwise someone's going to find a way to make a buck off of your stupidity.
