The People's Republic: Now Democrats Ban Mark Twain

.

THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA - This site is dedicated to exposing the continuing Marxist Revolution in California and the all around massive stupidity of Socialists, Luddites, Communists, Fellow Travelers and of Liberalism in all of its ugly forms.

"It was a splendid population - for all the slow, sleepy, sluggish-brained sloths stayed at home - you never find that sort of people among pioneers - you cannot build pioneers out of that sort of material. It was that population that gave to California a name for getting up astounding enterprises and rushing them through with a magnificent dash and daring and a recklessness of cost or consequences, which she bears unto this day - and when she projects a new surprise the grave world smiles as usual and says, "Well, that is California all over."

Now Democrats Ban Mark Twain

“'Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. '”

George Orwell, 1984

(KNX) - A debate is brewing about teaching anti-racism in the Burbank Unified School District, with a handful of classic books being removed from intstruction.

Teachers have been told to stop using the books such as Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” and Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird” until further notice.

The novels are under review after being challenged by some parents over concerns about racial content.

Nora Pelizzari with the National Coalition Against Censorship says the books in question tell anti-racist stories.

The organization has written a letter urging the district to keep the books in their curriculum and allow teachers to teach them during the review process…

The other novels included in the potential banning are “Of Mice and Men,” “The Cay,” and “Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry”.
