OP tells the truth as usual.

I have always believed that America’s children are the kite strings that keep our national ambitions aloft — the more we do today to spark their curiosity, their confidence, and their imaginations, the stronger our country will be tomorrow. The key to developing young learners into engaged, active, and innovative thinkers is instilling in them a love of reading at an early age. Reading is the gateway to countless skills and possibilities — it sets children on the path to a lifetime of discovery. On this Read Across America Day, we celebrate the parents, educators, librarians, and other champions of reading who help launch our Nation’s children on that critical path.

Once a passion for reading takes hold in a young person, the benefits extend far beyond the classroom. Reading broadens our perspective, introduces us to new worlds, cultures, and languages, and cultivates our sense of empathy and understanding of other people’s experiences and views. Reading informs us, empowers us, and teaches us the lessons of history. It helps us make sense of the world as it is — and inspires us to dream of what it could be. Studies also show that reading improves our memory, helps us become better problem solvers, and even reduces the chance of developing cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer’s down the road. And with the right book in hand, reading can nourish not only our minds, but our souls.

The First Lady often observes that “any nation that out-educates us will out-compete us.” She is absolutely correct. Literacy is essential to finding a good-paying job, advancing in your career, and carving out your place in the middle class. Reading proficiency is what makes us a Nation of innovators and entrepreneurs — a Nation capable of building and growing a dynamic 21st century economy. Reading comprehension is also what allows us to discern fact from fiction — a critical skill at all times, and especially so in the midst of a global pandemic, when the health and safety of our loved ones could very well depend on determining the veracity of what we read.

According to Department of Education estimates, more than half of United States adults (54 percent) between 16- and 74-years of age lack proficiency in literacy, reading below the equivalent of a sixth-grade level. Illiteracy incurs a massive economic toll on our economy, and keeps not just individuals, but our entire Nation, from reaching our full potential. By every calculation, reading matters to our shared quality of life.

For countless Americans, the path to literacy begins with story time in their school classroom. That is one of many reasons why my Administration is providing support to States and communities to help them create the conditions for students to return to safe, in-person learning as quickly as possible. We must ensure that all of our children receive the high-quality instruction and essential classroom time they need to learn and grow. It is a national imperative that we minimize the learning loss caused by the pandemic — and address the disproportionate impact that lost time imposes on our most vulnerable students and families.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 2, 2021, as Read Across America Day. I call upon children, families, educators, librarians, public officials, and all the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities. But not involving Dr. Seuss, because he's racist.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of March, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-one, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-fifth.

JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR.

Has Michael been informed Dr Seuss was racist? Will he denounce and apologize for his prior support?

[monty097]

“Obama's 2016 proclamation described Seuss as "one of America's revered wordsmiths" who "used his incredible talent to instill in his most impressionable readers universal values we all hold dear."

Even Barry read these books to his girls.

[dakensta]

Quote of Biden saying Dr. Seuss is, and I quote OP, "racist", pls.
Or him mentioning Dr. Seuss at all, or any other author for that matter?
Does this mean Ayn Rand is canceled?

[Johnez]

Is this cereal?

Lol, nevermind. Read OPs article.

Dude, seriously? They’re never going to come right out and say it so bluntly. They say BS like, “Dr. Seuss is not inclusive.”. Or they simply cancel his work from a reading list.

[W8isGR8]

Not mentioning Dr. Seuss is not "cancelling". As stated before only Trump and Obama specifically mentioned him. Stop manufacturing bullchit

[W8isGR8]

President Biden appears to have erased Dr. Seuss from "Read Across America Day", the annual celebration of reading in honor of the legendary children's author, whose birthday falls on March 2.
While Biden followed presidential tradition in proclaiming Tuesday "Read Across America Day," he bucked his predecessors by leaving out any mention of Dr. Seuss from the proclamation.
The White House didn't immediately return a request for comment on why Dr. Seuss was left out of the proclamation, but the snub comes as progressives have sought to cancel the beloved children's author.

JFC this such a reach to make

[dakensta]

But they have to manufacture it, if they want to get anywhere near the level of constant bullchit Trump produced.
Or else just shut up for a while.
So, they have to.

[dakensta]

And did they do or say any of those things, or even anything similar to those things?
Be honest.

That’s what they DID do.

Even Barry read Seuss to his daughters.

"It's not cancelled! It's just 6 books that are being pulled! Stop being paranoid! What are you, a Nazi? How dare you enjoy art that existed before TikTok?! The only entertainment allowed in 2021 is Mumble Rap, OnlyFans nudes, snarky memes, and lip-sync videos. Everything else is boomer art and thus inherently racist and sexist. Now worship me for this selfie."

Dr. Suess: Bad
