Dr Suess and Censorship

Dr Suess Enterprises has decided to stop publishing six of the books in their library due to their opinion that these books "portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong."

One of the books is "And To Think I Saw It On Mulberry Street".  I read this book to my kids, as did millions of other parents.  I couldn't remember anything offensive in that book, so I wanted to find out why it is now considered offensive after all these years.  In this episode I talk about the decision to stop publication, censorship, and the cancel culture.
