[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just a heads up that there is some racist stuff in the Little House on the Prairie books. https://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/what-should-be-done-about-racist-depictions-in-the-little-house-books/16587/ [quote]In one passage in “Little House on the Prairie,” Wilder wrote, “There were no people; only Indians lived there,” while in another, one of the characters, Pa, says, “the only good Indian is a dead Indian.” In “Little Town on the Prairie,” Pa appears in a minstrel show and sings a racist song — an anecdote accompanied by an illustration of the characters in blackface.[/quote][/quote] Helpful to know there are teachable moments. Books are still good, however. [/quote]
