The author of this article makes a valid point regarding censorship. However, I hadn't heard of a 'sensitivity reader' before this. She mentions something interesting:
>As a children’s author and sensitivity reader, I’ve followed the debate closely. When the Queen Consort urged writers to “remain true to your calling, unimpeded by those who may wish to curb the freedom of your expression”, I felt the need to defend the role of sensitivity readers, who aren’t here for limited creativity but to collaborate with writers and help them understand things outside of their lived experiences.
I have to question who that last part applies to. This sensitivity reader is a white woman, so does that mean she helps black or Asian male authors understand the lived experiences of a white woman?
Also, do you think sensitivity readers stifle expression? Are they mere censors?
