Reply To: Dr Seuss: anti-Jewish and anti-Black racism

First off, Dr. Seuss isn’t cancelled. His publisher and family simply decided to take six of his older books off the shelves because they contain depictions of people as racial stereotypes. For comparison, if a popular children’s book from the 1930s talked about a visitor from Jerusalem and showed a hooked nosed bearded hunchback counting money, we would all be screaming for the book to be pulled from the shelves.
