Should Russian lit be removed from schools?

I know the optics would be bad at first, but I'm unironically worried about the normalization of Russian influence on American society.

The vast majority of Russian lit taught in American schools is either indifferent to or critical of the Russian state, be it the Tsar, Communism, or Putin and his predecessors. Further, Russian lit isn't exactly flattering to Russians in general, even relatively nationalist works, such as those of Dostoevsky, leave Russia looking pretty backward and unpleasant.
