I don't understand how people unironically hold the opinion that classical literature is somehow owned by white people. The civilizations that created these works are so far divorced from our own that any attempt to directly trace a thread between specifically whites in modern America and them is simply a reductionist fiction. Do people of color in America not use Shakespearean phrases? Or reference Achilles' Heel? How is their culture so divorced from white culture such that they don't feel they have any claim to the founding classics of what we consider western civilization?

It's essentially a cope for retards. The majority of comments in her thread are "it's boring!", not "it's flawed" with some backup. If you are too stupid to understand why something is a classic, it's much easier to blame society, or "white men" rather than yourself. I have nothing against minorities, but promoting them for the sake of promoting them is idiotic. If there is not enough literature by people of color, fucking write something worth reading.

oh yeah because high school kids LOVE reading Jane Austen, the Brontes, and Virginia Woolf too. I'm sure if they were given the chance to read Toni Morrison or Leslie Marmon Silko they'd FLOCK to it.

90% of high School aged kids DON'T want to read. If they want to read, they only want to read shitty young adult fantasy books, or gay shit like John Green which is not going to expand their understanding of literature. The only use those books serve is that they might grow your vocabulary by about 5%, and beyond that you might as well be spending your time watching television. Your best chance is to make them read something challenging but still age appropriate, and hope that the 15% of kids that put the effort into understanding the text will grow because of it.

Plenty of people say this. Whiteness is a social construct, it's only existed for a few hundred years. Germans weren't even considered white until the 18th century, when different races really came into play. Most aligned themselves with their nationality, not the color of the skin. There is no "white" race, only european ethnic groups.

Honestly, the best memories I have from high school literature classes was reading The Raven and our teacher enthusiastically analyzing it and being passionate about it.
I don't think the issue is the actual works we read but whether the instructor is good enough at making kids care and shows an interest in it themselves.
Calling them to change the curriculum to only have flavor of the month YA novels isn't the correct way to get kids interested in reading

I hate to sound like a /pol/tard but the international “bankers” are, you know, international. Even Churchill wrote about it at length in Zionism Versus Bolshevism.
>In violent opposition to all this sphere of Jewish effort rise the schemes of the International Jews. The adherents of this sinister confederacy are mostly men reared up among the unhappy populations of countries where Jews are persecuted on account of their race. Most, if not all, of them have forsaken the faith of their forefathers, and divorced from their minds all spiritual hopes of the next world. This movement among the Jews is not new. From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to Trotsky (Russia), Bela Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxembourg (Germany), and Emma Goldman (United States), this world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing. It played, as a modern writer, Mrs. Webster, has so ably shown, a definitely recognisable part in the tragedy of the French Revolution.

Nah, Puritanism is about bootlicking, Puritans were hyper-authoritarians who banned literally everything as late as the 50s, thus the phrase "banned in Boston", but it'd be wrong to say they didn't value education or literacy. This doesn't just go for the Protestants either, Irish Catholics had similar attitudes and viewed Italian immigrants as too morally lax. They might arrive at some similar endpoints, but from different traditions imo.

Also England (and the whole Anglosphere) had the Evangelical Revival, in both countries the anti-slavery crusaders were largely Evangelical, like William Wilberforce. This is not a pro-slavery take, but I think this is where the attitudes of today come from. The main problem is the lack of a hierarchy to stop blatant heresy/stupidity, whatever preacher is most charismatic ends up becoming popular.

European leftists afe no longer Marxists but americanised neoprotestants Paul Gottfried captured this phenomenon in his book the strange death of marxism. They have rejected their local working classes for american style consumeristic identity politics, TV and social media fads.

>oh yeah because high school kids LOVE reading Jane Austen, the Brontes, and Virginia Woolf
Graduated high school aw year ago and enjoyed all three of these authors at the time (Only Charlotte Bronte, never read anything by ). The thing is that the recent trendy "Young Adult" novels are actually read primarily by middle schoolers. Most of the people who read them either move on to greater things or give up on reading by the time they turn 15 or so. The reason so many kids hate reading is that they spend so many of their formative years being forced to read garbage for school that by the time they reach anything worthwhile in school they just don't read it

I've honestly never read a novel by a non-white other than Battle Royale as a teen and some assigned reading. Like, what are some good novels written by non-whites that aren't about racism anyway? Is this just an excuse to cope with being dumb by blaming your inability to appreciate a work on the evil boring white guys

Most people have bad taste. Sometimes when they're young and still developing there's a chance that their taste will improve by introducing to them to good art--this means classic literature by white men, as the best artists are almost exclusively white men and the best literature isn't contemporary.

The downside, if it is a downside, is that kids with chronically bad taste (usually these are low IQ kids, but sometimes they're autistic types or just aesthetically tone deaf) may be discouraged from reading, but left to their own devices or if given a basic bitch reading list they would have read banal superficial YA-tier kind of stuff that's no more meaningful than watching TV, so there's no real loss.

Also, this may be too obvious to bother stating, but the woman in the tweet just wants to push her politics on kids, and everyone. Philistine ideology.

What should be improved is the way literature is presented. Get rid of the art-destroying analysis and dissection that is current literary education, but that's never going to happen.

It isn't even that. It's just memorizing minute, often insignificant objective details from the book and then rewritting the teacher's interpretation of the book. I have no idea what it's like in university though since I didn't have any literature courses in college

The earth is your mother,
she holds you.
The sky is your father,
he protects you.
Sleep,
sleep.
Rainbow is your sister,
she loves you.
The winds are your brothers,
they sing to you.
Sleep,

We are together always
We are together always
There never was a time
when this
was not so.

Most people don't like it because it's aesthetically offensive; not because of the colour of the speaker's skin. We like and value beautiful or interesting dialects.

I love those authors too, and loved them in high school, but I teach high school kids, we are by far in the minority.

Most students don't pick up a book again after age 14, and without resorting to luddism things like YouTube definitely play a role. Though I'm sure it was always not great.
