Response to NYT columnist saying Dr. Seuss has bias in some books.

 So we shouldn't read Mark Twin? How about William Faulkner? Remove the examples of "normal racism" and you denigrate the fight against it. They demonstrate that people can acclimate themselves to any and all philosophies. And seems, especially the horrible ones. I think it's because of our prayer for magic. Maybe rotten does make us superior. But that's irrelevant. The truth is that there have been slaves for 10,000 years and a fair percentage of them were, and are, black. And white and toddlers and all exposed to man's inhumanities to man. And now you say tear up some of the little books that unintentionally, probably, but its irrelevant, have some bias. There's ten times the bias, black bias, in the Bible and the Koran, etc. Tear them up and I'll come to your funeral. Education and understanding is how you fight all ignorance. Get your head out of your column and get it into the human race. Oh, yeah, you won't get paid unless you, as a journalist, don't start some kind of fight, rather than help cure a human ill.
