1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 2: Let's get on down to the Jonesy the Man of

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 2: Arms for the pub test this morning. Everyone that joins

4
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 2: us at the bar on the pub test and gets

5
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 2: on the air gets five hundred dollars thanks to Coming

6
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: to America the sequel on Amazon.

7
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 3: How cool is that today we're discussing Doctor Seuss books.

8
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 3: Do they pass the pub test? Six of his books

9
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 3: have been permanently pulled from publication after a panel of

10
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 3: experts deemed that the books betrayed some people is quote

11
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 3: hateful and wrong and old fashioned stereotypes.

12
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: The books are just not a representative of diversity. They

13
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: show black and brown characters, and when they do, they're

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: in really negative stereotype. Always to human eye, black and

15
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: brown people people of color show them as subservia.

16
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, when I was a kid, I remember, and to

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 2: think I saw it on Mulberry Street, a chinaman who

18
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 2: eats with sticks that always just has that this visceral

19
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: flashback of being a kid and reading that book.

20
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 3: Also using language like they wear their eyes at a slant,

21
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 3: and they were Africans with large hoops through their noses.

22
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 3: These were various stereotypical images of how people in other

23
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 3: countries looked and lived, and these were written between forty

24
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: seven and seventy six.

25
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's easy for me as a white guy

26
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: to say that, you know, it doesn't affect me in

27
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: any way. But then in time any mini miney mo,

28
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 2: we change that. Yeah?

29
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 3: Is this an appropriate way for kids to be taught

30
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 3: about people in other countries these days? So those books

31
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: have been permanently pulled? Doctor Seuss books? Do they passed

32
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 3: the pub test?

33
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: Absolutely?

34
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 3: Does pass the pup test.

35
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 4: When these books were written, they had well attentions. And

36
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 4: do you know what, I'm going to read it from

37
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 4: my kids too. Yeah, I reckon the world's born in

38
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 4: this too far. I think it's brilliantly creative books and

39
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 4: THEO I think so they were written a really long

40
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 4: time ago, and I don't think it passes a pub test.

41
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: They should be allowed to stay on the shelf.

42
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 4: No, I think it's the wrong. I think we grew

43
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 4: up at these books. Where's the end? How many books

44
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 4: are going to take away?

45
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: Leave them alone?

46
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: Leave the books alone.

47
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: Leave the books alone? Thank you for all It costs

48
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: five hundred dollars pro eround. They got on there pretty

49
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: Good Jonesy and Amanda's gamnation
