The Second Front in the History of American Culture Wars
This is, as I discussed with Cornell, this is the second front in the history of American culture wars for our generation. We were busy trying to get black authors like Zornio Hurston and Tony Martin into the Norton anthology of American literature. So what's happening 20 years later? Now they're trying to ban the anthologies that we integrated. And how ironic is that? Well, it's ironic, but how does it make you feel? It makes me feel like we got to fight harder. No textbooks should be banned. But they keep telling the truth of American history.
