Some Tuesday Reads

 This is why the political left loses elections.  Never mind it was a publisher and estate decision because their actions are as a result of idiot pressure by woke librarians and academics.

Now you can't even find the early Seuss books in question without paying a king's ransom.  Take a look at eBay for examples.  

I have written about "presentism" before, and this is yet another case of the woke crowd trying to erase the past.

Obituary:  Noted civil rights activist and close ally to former President Bill Clinton Vernon Jordan, 85, died yesterday of undisclosed causes.

Nitwitted Republicans who impeached Clinton over nothing really tried to make it look like Jordan was involved in something nefarious, but all the impeachment nonsense did was help Clinton's approval ratings.

Snip:

Born on August 15, 1935, Jordan grew up in the segregated South and graduated from DePauw University in Indiana in 1957, the only Black student in his class. He then studied law at Howard University and began his career fighting segregation, starting with a lawsuit against University of Georgia's integration policy in 1961 on the behalf of two Black students, Hamilton Holmes and Charlayne Hunter. Jordan accompanied the two students to the UGA admissions office that year through an angry mob of White students.

He worked as a field director for the NAACP and as a director of the Southern Regional Council for the Voter Education Project before he became president of the National Urban League. In 1980, he survived an assassination attempt on his life.
