This seems like you’re willfully missing the point, the point is how classic literature reinforces some supremacy of some sort, and they must be removed from curriculum to allow for voices from non whites. Classic Greek philosophers aren’t “white” imo so it’s all superfluous

There isn't a word about the "curriculum" in Vidal. He talks of how Richard Wright, as a young Black author, found inspiration from older white authors like H.L. Mencken, and how it could work in the other direction as well. This is a "terrifying" call to "burn books"???pic.twitter.com/TKsTOjM25G

This might be the singular most confusing article + comments I've seen in a long time. What on earth is going on? I read the article 3 times to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Right? It’s a very innocuous article. It’s literally just “hey, try reading books by a diverse set of authors” and the replies are just out of this world.
