Has anyone else checked Ebay? I have seen several sales today (March 6th) of the books in question. Hundreds of dollars. I think this was a ploy to get people to go to Ebay. They get fees from the sales. There are live listings.

I liked Dr. Seuss as a kid. The illustrations were what I liked most. I read some of these books to my kids when they were young. They turned out fine.

Quote:
The term “African American” should also stop being used. “Black” is listed as a “possible alternative” as “not all Black people are from Africa and/or America.”

Even a more generic term such as “people of color” is considered “oppressive,”

I'm sick and tired of the stories that you always tell
Shakespeare couldn't tell a story that well
See, you're the largest liar that was ever created
You and Pinocchio are probably related
Full of criss-crossed fits, you lie all the time
Your tongue should be embarrassed, you're a threat to mankind
