OK fine I'm talking about the Roald Dahl book changes
I wasn't planning on talking about how the UK decided to change Roald Dahl's books, but he more I thought about it, the more I had ~feelings about it. In case you missed it, the publisher, Penguin House, recently released a statement on how they were going to publish revised versions of all of Roald Dahl's most famous works. Naturally, there was an uproar. Let's discuss it. I know this is a sensitive topic, so remember to play nice in the comments. Chapters 00:00 - What's this even about? 01:50 - Thesis statement for the video 02:42 - The ethics of censorship 09:36 - The actual changes to Dahl's works 20:37 - Sensitivity readers 23:10 - Some takeaways 24:29 - A last question (what's the reach?) 25:51 - Conclusion Sources/Links For all the changes: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023... https://www.inclusiveminds.com/ https://www.npr.org/2023/02/24/115922... https://www.slj.com/story/Little-Hous... https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/... https://www.theguardian.com/books/202... https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...
