Kamala Harris’ tweet about Dr. Seuss resurfaces amid racial controversy

A 2017 tweet from Vice President Kamala Harris has resurfaced mentioning Dr. Seuss by name and quoting him, four years before her own administration would strip his name from Read Across America Day.

Harris was a senator when she sent out the tweet, dated March 2, 2017, in which she wished the famed children’s book author a happy birthday.

“Happy birthday, #DrSeuss! ‘The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go,’” the California senator wrote at the time.

The birthday of Dr. Seuss — whose real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel and who died at 87 in 1991 — was chosen by the National Educational Association in 1998 as the date for a new holiday focused on promoting children’s literacy.

  1. I am so offended by this, I can’t believe that she would say such a thing. I’m going directly to my safe place for a couple of recovery hours then petition my elected officials to start the impeachment process.

  2. Ahhh whatever.

    Internet became a “thang” in 1994/95? It has indeed changed the landscape of everything. Good and Bad.

    C’est la vie!

  3. Countless millions of children over many decades learned to read because of Dr. Seuss book. A few years ago she praised him. Now when it benefits, her she has no problem ruining his lifetimes work and accomplishments if she can gain support of the woke cancel culture.
    Perhaps Dr. Seuss parody book can appear referencing her sexual affair with her former boss Mayor Willie Brown who then happily promoted her.
