Six children s books written decades ago by Dr. Seuss were pulled from publication because they contain racist and insensitive imagery says the company formed to preserve Dr. Seuss legacy. (Boy with friends like these, who needs enemies?)
If Dr. Seuss was racist, what about The Sneetches with is considered one of the greatest children s book of all time? Is the cancel culture is going after Dr. Seuss because he was a liberal who fought against racism? Both he and Dr. Martian Luther King Jr. must be rolling in their graves! Tell me, how does this story harm children?

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - The Charleston YWCA says they are hosting their annual Martin Luther King Day parade and breakfast, but this year, everything will be virtual.
YWCA Executive Director LaVanda Brown says the protests over the summer remind her of the days Martin Luther King spoke not only about making a change, but taking actions.
So despite changes in this year’s MLK events, Brown says they are expecting more people than ever to attend.
