Thousands of celebrated children’s books, such as Dr Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat, have been branded by Cambridge University as racist and targeted for censorship.
A taxpayer-funded project to digitise texts at Cambridge’s Homerton College will include stamping trigger warnings on potentially “harmful” words, phrases, and pictures “relating to slavery, colonialism and racism.”
Leftwing activists behind the political project have been awarded £80,633 of British taxpayers’ money from the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council, according to the Daily Mail.
Describing their ‘woke’ project, quackademics at the university stated:
“Problems are encountered continually with respect to the history of demeaning terms associated with disability and indigenous cultures, as well as the immigrants who have shaped modern America and Britain.
“Trigger warnings, with indications of harmful content for intersectional identities, will protect researchers, children, and general readers from offensiveness or hurt that can emerge in otherwise safe search queries or acts of browsing.”
One of the latest icons of British literature targeted is Enid Blyton, whose massively popular books comprising her huge catalogue are also in line for censorship.
The ongoing attacks on cultural icons by Leftwing activists has revealed the racism inherent in their twisted ideology.
Earlier this year, activists at the University of York issued a grovelling apology and retracted an image of the Three Wise Monkeys – a depiction of a famous Japanese proverb – from its call for art history submissions after they exposed their racist thinking that minorities would identify them as a racial stereotype and be offended.
Other targets include Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, Sir Issac Newton, sheet music, Medieval English literature, The Queen.
