shareMakes a lot of sense, doesn't it? Let's ban a book that's all about why racism is bad, because it has, GASP, racial slurs in it! We can't give our kids an honest portrayal of history, now can we? We need to let them believe the world started in 2016. While we're at it, let's rewrite Schindlers List to show the Jews getting lollipops and cotton candy in the concentration camps.
shareUpdate on this...The school rescinded the ban a couple weeks ago due to public out cry...same kind of logic you used
