Speaking Out: Cancelling won’t better society Dr. Seuss March 17, 2021
During the COVID-19 lockdown, my siblings and I started viewing movies and TV shows that we grew up with and developed a game: we would try and see which jokes, ideologies, portrayals and topics will eventually get cancelled according to today’s standards and practices.
It takes a bit of effort to finally unpack what a simple word or action would mean in our now “realized” minds. I call it realized and not “woke” simply because we just about realized whatever we watched would mean that we have new and different experiences and perspectives than when we were kids, not that we were asleep and unconscious when we watched it for the first time.
