A school board in southern Alaska voted to remove five classic books from an approved list for high school English teachers this fall, the Anchorage Daily News reported.


Last week, the Matanuska-Susitna School Board in Palmer, Alaska, voted 5-2 to ban the books, which include “Invisible Man” by Ralph Ellison; “Catch-22” by Joseph Heller; “The Things They Carried” by Tim O’Brien; “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” by Maya Angelou; and “The Great Gatsby” by F. Scott Fitzgerald, according to the outlet.

Angelou’s work was banned because of a graphic description she wrote about being molested as a child and for “anti-white” messaging.

Ralph Ellison's niggerbook The Invisible Man should never be allowed into any educational system, but Angelou is just a dumb nigger.

Why the fuck ban F. Scott's Gatsby? I've read it several times (English Lit. major mammy, you see), and I don't recall anything untoward in that book in at all. There were far more "offensive" books on our book list when I was in high skoo (late 80's - early 90's).

I can only remember a few very benign references to race in the book -- maybe one use of the term "colored".

So stupid...

Exactly. That is one of my favourite books.

If anything it is about the futility of war and the insanity that surrounds it.
