Mega rich racist author Ibram X. Kendi spoke Wednesday evening at the Fairfax County Public Library in Virginia at the cost to tax payers of $22,500. No surprise. Librarians have been woke before radical racist groups came up with the term. When George W. Bush was president I used to blog about the lop sided anti-Bush books on the PL shelves in Upper Arlington, and the almost no selection of Christian books. Public libraries have been under-representing the public for decades, yet the publishing industry depends on their purchases to stay alive. If you did a little deeper, Fairfax Co. also spent about $24,000 on Kendi's books in 2020.
The median value of a home in Fairfax Co. is $595,000 (2021), median household income is $134,00, probably reflecting the high Asian population. In general, Asian is above the national average and white is below.
