I mean, my mom found a Golden Book version of Little Black Sambo which featured black face and racist illustrations and whatnot. She took it but left it up to me but even that I didn’t really want to burn it for the reason you said.
Buuuut it did disappear from our place at some point and I don’t know who may have thrown it out. But like, I get it in this case.
Yeah people put crazy shit in them. My buddy back in the day found smut about pirates in one, and we were young teenagers. I found a Dennis brown CD in one right outside of an elementary school a few blocks down from me a few weeks ago lol.
That’s more on people just trying to spread racist or weird shit not really any reflection on the free libraries themselves. Who says kids don’t like reggae
