Why is the board of the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), taking it upon itself to re-write history? Is that not what Communists do? History is what it is. The ALSC must have a few self righteous snobs.
Do they themselves have any accomplishments comparable to Laura Ingalls Wilder? Do they have to smear her to feel better about themselves?
do I understand here that they are taking back an award??
This kind of stuff is happening wholesale in lbraries and public schools across America. They want to erase everything good all memory of the good and decent culture we had.
Pa Ingalls was extremely fiercely independent and hard working. AND he was willing to give the Indians a fair shot. He knew some were bad, some were good just like any group. He was probably more fair than many of that day. ( many tribes were extremely violent to the settlers so that fear was justifird). But youd have to actually read the books to know that. There was a black foctor who was a hero, he treated many of the settler families who came down with an epidemic. In another story an Indian helped Pa in an insurrection against the railroad company when some men tried to steal the pay box. Too bad these library ladies cant read or their leftist feminist PC blinders make them incapable of understanding . Bleh
