I think it would be a good thing to bury forever the jingle "One little, two little, three little Indians" and all the rest of the racist childhood lore of our past.

For those who want to preserve the our history so we can learn from it, the texts could be placed in the Smithsonian or the Iraqi Museum and children could happily grow up without it.

Please - not before i'm gone.

Censorship in the name of political correctness is an abomination, IMHO. But, not to worry, I'm 63 years old and won't live forever. After I'm gone you can create your own little utopia and I won't care. I just hope you can live with it. Once censorship is given a place, it will spread like a foul, degenerative disease and and will leave its victims with terminal brain rot.

Well said. I can recall the 1960s “Free Speech Movement” at Berkeley … after being given their “right” to utter anything offensive, the Left now claims a new sensitivity that demands they censor the free speech of others. What hypocrisy!

You are so right! It will be an easy thing indeed to leave a barren world shaped by political correctness, secular humanism and moral relativism.
