Drier: Has political correctness gone too far?


Drier: Has political correctness gone too far?

There has been a flurry of news articles about companies changing their logos on products or the products themselves because they were perceived as being insensitive to some cultures.
I was rather surprised when there wasn’t the usual fanfare about reading in celebration of Dr. Seuss and his birthday. Theodor Seuss Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss) was born March 2, 1904. There was usually a big deal made about reading on March 2.
Then, I saw a news broadcast that some of his books were going to stop being printed because it was felt the illustrations were racist.

Unless you’re a convict who is currently in solitary confinement, you surely know that Dr. Seuss Enterprises, which oversees the estate of the late Theodor Geisel, a/k/a, Dr. Seuss, will discontinue publication of six of his works. “These books portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong,” Dr. Seuss Enterprises said in a statement. This decision was reached after consultation with a panel of experts, including educators, who reviewed Seuss’ books. Random House Children’s Books, which publishes Seuss’ books, announced in a public statement that it respected the decision.

Books by Theodor Seuss Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, including “On Beyond Zebra!” and “And to Think That I Saw it on Mulberry Street,” will no longer be printed due to accusations of racist and insensitive imagery. The other titles are “If I Ran the Zoo,” “McElligot’s Pool,” “Scrambled Eggs Super!” and “The Cat’s Quizzer.”Scott Olson / Getty Images
Everybody calm down.
Dr. Seuss is not being canceled, and his books are not being banned. If I had a little more energy, I’d put that in anapestic tetrameter.

Whither news conferences? Step up to the podium, Mr. President

President Biden speaks with reporters on the South Lawn of the White House last month.Samuel Corum / New York Times
Each of President Biden’s last 15 predecessors held a solo press conference at this point in their first terms. Biden’s lack of accessibility is drawing criticism from Washington reporters who have plenty of questions to ask him directly. It also challenges his promise of a new era of truth and transparency after four years of an administration that was deficient on each.
It’s not as if there were a dearth of issues to pursue in Biden’s first two months. The rollout of the vaccine, the $1.9 trillion pandemic relief bill, the air strike on Iran-backed militias in Syria, the administration’s tepid response to a finding that Saudi Arabia’s crown prince authorized the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and Biden’s issuance of executive orders on everything from immigrant rights to the Paris climate agreement cry out for elaboration by the 46th president.

Universal Orlando said Tuesday that it has decided to pull the six Dr. Seuss books that will no longer be published from its shelves and is evaluating other changes that could be made.
The books — including “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street” and “If I Ran the Zoo” — will stop being published because of racist and insensitive imagery, the business that preserves and protects the author's legacy said Tuesday.
“These books portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong,” Dr. Seuss Enterprises told The Associated Press in a statement that coincided with the late author and illustrator’s birthday.

PORTSMOUTH, Va. — Five-dollar children’s books are now selling for upwards of $1,000 online.
The Book Owl used bookstore in Portsmouth only charged around $5 — a steal for some Dr. Seuss books that are now in high demand.
“I saw their hands. It was a blur, but I saw. It was amazing; they’d be really good in Vegas - quick hands,” said owner Nelson Velez.
It was an unexpectedly busy day for an otherwise quiet bookstore. At 10 a.m., there were 12 Seuss books sitting on the shelf. By 11 a.m., there were none.
