Library Review Process

There is a book burning in Ontario in 2019 organised by the regional school board. The ashes are used to fertilise an Inclusivity Tree.

2021 and Book Burning Project Partner and Totally Ethnic Native Indigenous Urban Aboriginal Suzy Kies appears to be an imposter:

Readers: What? Not a Totally Ethnic Native Indigenous Urban Aboriginal? Well, stap me vitals.

Blogista: Could've knocked me sideways with a feather.

Readers: I mean, you just have to say "Suzy Kies" and a Maliseet Laporte (who are Innu) Wbanaki Confederacy Turtle Clan Abenaki Montagnais-Naskape provenance immediately springs to mind.




As with so many news stories these days, there are more levels of insanity in all this than I have the means to trowel through single-handed. I am old enough to remember the phrase "political correctness gone mad" as referring to a single and simple aberration. The prolific manifolds of modern lunacy require teams and seasons in the field.

One item sticks out from the rest as a particularly rich find. The Board Spokesperson declares that
these revelations have prompted us to rethink our library review process...
















Illustration: a typical Library Review Process pictured today. It may need rethinking.
