[quote=Anonymous]My issue with the DEI curriculum in my kids school was that it cuts things like Richard Wright and Mildred Taylor and Camus and Things Fall Apart and Solzynitsn and Orwell, books written by people who faced real oppression and pain for pushing against the political manners for their time and place in favor of books written in the past 10 years based on ideas that have only come out of one kind of university that serves only one kind of elite person. Preferring books written about indigenous people and their “ways of knowing” by women who didn’t grow up in the tribe is pretty much the whitest kind of lit out there and hasn’t been new since Rosseau. Feeling like you are one of the elect “few” and one of the “better” people has been around since the Puritans, but I’ll say this for those guys, at least they knew the Hebrew Bible wasn’t written in some castle in Wales.[/quote]
