#US - Asked to Delete References to Racism From Her Book, an Author Refused
> When Tokuda-Hall read the details of the offer, she felt deflated — then outraged. Scholastic wanted her to delete references to #racism in America from her author’s note, in which she addresses readers directly.
> The decision was wrenching, Tokuda-Hall said, but she turned #Scholastic down and went public, describing her predicament in a blog post and a Twitter post that drew more than five million views.
