A South Florida woman was so shocked recently by “woke” and “cancel culture” books being sold in the baby section of Barnes & Noble, she recorded the titles and posted them on Facebook.
“OH MY LORD. Parents please wake up and see what is happening!” says Renee Times, a Republican precinct committeewoman in Palm Beach County.
“I took a trip to #barnesandnoble to buy a children’s gift check out some of these titles and how our children are being indoctrinated into this #woke Cancel Culture we are witnessing right before our eyes.”
“You gotta be kidding me. I’m at Barnes & Noble. Look at these books!” Times says in the video as she peruses titles, even flipping some to see what’s on the back. WATCH THE VIDEO:
“Are you kidding me?” she declares upon seeing a copy of “My First Book of Feminism” by Julie Merberg. “Oh my God, let me buy this for MY daughter. I wonder what it says in here. Wow.”
