Scholastic Books comes to its senses! Great news. Read banned books. Support banned authors. Drive the book banners into the sea.
Awesome! They grew their sense back!
Excellent!
Pressure works.
Hmm, they don't ever quite admit they were stupid fools for being pressured by the loud, violent enemies of the First Amendment. Their "commitment" is to however + whomever the wind is blowing. I wouldn't trust them as far as you could throw a book. Not that I ever never threw or would throw a book.
Where did this show up BTW? You’d figure this would be in Scholastic’s press room but nope.
Fantastic news! They should have known better in the first place but at least they recognized their error
I mean, three cheers for progress, but still, what have you come to in your life if "we understand now that it was a mistake to segregate" is something you're saying in 2023.
Did it though? The letter says they won't have the case anymore, and "will find an alternate way" to get diverse books to kids. Sounds to me like they're not really changing anything.
