Now they try to ban books from being written

"...The New York Times on Sunday invited readers into the brewing controversy surrounding Jeanine Cummins’s latest novel, American Dirt, about a desperate mother fleeing Mexican narco gangsters with her 8-year-old son in a frenzied quest for safety in the United States....

The Times quotes a writer named Myriam Gurba, who sought to explain one element of the anti-Cummins complaint–and did so with a certain racial provocativeness. “Cummins,” wrote Gurba, “identified the gringo appetite for Mexican pain and found a way to exploit it.”

What this controversy tells us is that this whole business about cultural appropriation has gotten totally out of control....

Its a story the progressives want, but the right person isn't telling it. The author isn't Mexican and she's only half Latina. The horror!!!!


People have gotten flat out nuts. Totalitarianism is alive and well in the USA.
