Why 2 Award-Winning Black Authors Were Silenced in a Tennessee School
<p>Ifa tree falls in the woods, does it make a sound?” Of course, it does because the world does not begin or end at the point of your perception. Just because you are thousands of miles away from a forest doesn’t mean that the tree did not, in fact, crash to the ground and make a loud sound. The same can be said about racism in America. Black people regularly experience racism in our society, and this experience is not dependent upon White people’s acknowledgment or acceptance of these conditions. However, those advancing nationwide censorship cruscade seem to think that if a tree falls in the woods, it won’t make a sound.
