Another good piece, Jack. Horrifying, but not shocking. Rodgers and Hammerstein nailed it over 70 years ago with "You've Got to Be Carefully Taught", in which they advanced the radical (to some) notion that children weren't born racist, they were raised that way. It's a lot easier to say, "elephants are not birds" than to explain yourself. The photos of the team on the B.B. website look like a maga rally waiting to happen. "Brave Books - ruining children since 2021!"

Had no idea. The bullshit is seeping in under the doormat. I was recently remembering reading all
of Matt Christopher’s books.
