Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Name Gets Removed From Literary Award… ‘Cuz She’s A Big Ol’ Racist

YOU GUYS.

Did you know ‘Little House on the Prairie’ is SUPER racist?!

I had no idea. Apparently, I’m not #Woke enough.

According to WTHR:

A division of the American Library Association has voted to remove Laura Ingalls Wilder’s name from a major children’s book award over concerns with how the early-to-mid 20th century author portrayed blacks and Native Americans.

The Association for Library Service to Children’s board made the unanimous decision Saturday at a meeting in New Orleans. The name has been changed to the Children’s Literature Legacy Award.

The association says the work of Wilder — best known for her “Little House on the Prairie” novels — “includes expressions of stereotypical attitudes inconsistent with ALSC’s core values.”

The first award was given to Wilder in 1954. The ALSC says Wilder’s work continues to be published and read but her “legacy is complex” and “not universally embraced.”

The American Library Association is based in Chicago.

Uhhhhhhhh.

I um… don’t even know what to say.

WTF.

Stupidity. The Little House books are some of the best children’s books ever written, with a great message in them. The fact that Ma didn’t like Indians doesn’t change that – and I’d rather my kids know history than whitewash it. https://t.co/xfj9AU2ofd

So basically Wilder’s work is considered “controversial,” because of the pioneer family’s fear of Native American attacks…

Instead of teaching these books in a historical context, the left wants to pretend they never happened.

So um, when’s the bonfire? I’m sure the libs will host a book burning shortly.
