In his 2022 Read Across America Day statement on Tuesday, Joe Biden announced that Dr. Seuss is un-canceled. 

“Children’s classics such as Dr. Seuss’ ‘Green Eggs and Ham’ and ‘Oh, the Places You’ll Go!’ have inspired a passion for reading and endless creativity that spans generations,” Biden said in the statement, per the Daily Caller. “Today’s stories and adventures are as diverse as the world in which we live.” 

As previously reported by Human Events News, in March of 2021, six Dr. Seuss books were canceled over alleged “racial undertones” and insensitive imagery, according to a leftist educational group in Virginia called Learning for Justice. 

The national educators’ organization advised schools that the wildly popular children’s stories suffer from “anti-blackness and white supremacy.” 

For more than 20 years, March 2 has been celebrated as “Read Across America Day” in honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, a day to celebrate reading and his legacy. 

The six canceled books were: “And to Think That I Saw it on Mulberry Street,” “If I Ran the Zoo,” “McElligot’s Pool,” “On Beyond Zebra!,” “Scrambled Eggs Super!” and “The Cat’s Quizzer.”
