    I'd suggest that whoever is demanding we "reevaluate [Jane Austen's] colonial roots" needs to have another read of Mansfield Parkhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/04/18/jane-austens-tea-drinking-will-face-historical-interrogation/ …

        What does it add to have a little placard at the Austen museum saying "people, including Jane Austen, drank tea in Regency England. Sugar came from plantations in the Caribbean. Some owned shares in it". Of all the millions of things you could say about Austen, is this really it?

        They'd need to have actually read it once to be able to reread it, which given they're saying all this I doubt they have

        I am sure that Austen's use of language must be colonialist if not white supremacist. Better burn all her works

        They won't be happy until everything you like has to be associated with shame.
