    What an absolute turd of a statement. Says a lot about a person and any organization they might lead.

    Meanwhile it’s the same type of person campaigning for defunding of public libraries and schools.

      I think you mean “defunding” and I agree. Plenty of black and female artists made excellent work in that space and it sounds like her book may be one of the dying cries of her bigoted generation’s values.

        Yep, edited my comment shortly after posting because I’m too cool to proofread until after I post. 😎

        But yeah, this is definitely a value I’m hoping can die with a generation. But also not holding my breath.
