I noticed this turn in books towards wokeness/DEI over 15 years ago. I was getting middle grade and teen books for my kids from a library near my office. I read most of them and continued reading them when they went off to college. I watched good series go downhill with this nonsense and it became harder for me to find good, upstanding books.

I remember reading a few years ago about a library, maybe in Canada, that dumped their reading books from before 2008. It was quite disgusting.

Wokeness/DEI cannot survive, let alone grow, without massive propaganda and, unfortunately, too many of these people want to force it down everyone's throats, especially children's. A sick and tyrannical movement that we need to do more to defeat.

Agreed. This is one reason I was so glad to that Caroline wrote this article- to let people know they can fight back and there are other publisher and author options to get GOOD stories that entertain and uplift, rather than accuse, castigate and tear down.
