Check out my facebook page for the link to the op-ed piece written by Tacoma author Mary Boone. She had an author visit canceled because her book about a woman who rode her bike around the world in 1895 smacked of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. I met Mary in September at a Highlights workshop in Pennsylvania, and she is hardly a radical, but a respected author of 70 books for children. I feel badly for the kids her visit might have inspired.
