[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to use again your critical thinking tin foil cap. If in the [b]English literature[/b] class you add six non literary garbage works like Kendi's, then you need to take out six works like Shakespeare or Beowulf, right? Unless of course you arguing that Kendi's place is in the canon, lol.

Holy moly, how can someone be so clueless and completely ignorant of it? You are amazing![/quote]

I think you are arguing against yourself.

The question they or you were answering is what are YOU reading as an adult? The question implies that forcing dwm authors exclusively makes kids hate reading. A child who reads dwm as part of the cannon might not grow up to be an adult who loves to read. And continuing the same standard might not get you what you want.

So you or someone posted a bunch of books about the black experience to prove they “get it”. They didn’t even say this should replace Shakespeare.

I say you should add a lot more books and keep the cannon. But then whiny moms like you will complain their kids have eye strain or something.[/quote]

still with the "cannon" lady? I really think you should stop talking. [/quote]
