The gall of this first lady (and this post is only about the person who donated books, not just because she is female.). How dare she donate racist books to elementary schools. Hooray for the Massachusetts librarian who rejected the racist material donated by our First Lady.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/29/politics/melania-trump-library-books-dr-suess/index.html It has been in all my teacher librarian feeds, but here it is on CNN. Tim makes an excellent point, why did the librarian NOT have a problem with Dr. Seuss and racism in his books when she dressed as the Cat in the Hat? Librarians are not to prohibit free speech ...See More
